While walking through the woods near their home, Jeffery Tolliver and Sara Linton find a dead girl buried in a hand-made coffin.  The investigation into her death leads to a church and a farm straddling the county line and has ties to Sara’s family’s secrets.  While they get closer to finding the culprit, Lena is forced to deal with the physical abuse that her so-called boyfriend has been doing to her.

After four and a half months, I return to Karin Slaughter’s Grant County series with the fifth and penultimate entry, Faithless.  Knowing what is coming, I both want to jump to the next entry and also put it off.  Either way, I should be finishing the series soon, leaving me with just a handful of one-offs.
