When the killer arrested by Wagner and Evelyn Mitchell in their first case together is paroled, Wagner suspects him in a similar crime today.

That trait rears its ugly head once again here, as we learn that Wagner rescued Will Trent as a baby, named him, and kept watch out for him over the years.\u00a0 Aside from that, the stories are engrossing and enjoyable, but the interconnectedness just pulls you out of the story.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Catching up on the books I read while in Hawaii on vacation.
