Will is tempted to chase the car down on foot, but logic prevails and he decides to call in his colleagues from the Georgia FBI office to help discover who took Sara. Will stands back, observing and offering Sara some assistance while they wait for other medical personnel to arrive, but before Sara can get very far in her assessment of the man’s injuries, she’s seized and forced at gunpoint into a car, leaving Will behind. Sara has no clue what has exploded or who is responsible, but she knows her medical expertise will be needed on the scene, so she and Will Trent, the FBI agent she’s been involved with for several years, hurry to the scene, both determined to help in whatever way they can.Īs soon as they arrive, Sara begins attempting to treat a man who appears to be unconscious. Medical examiner Sara Linton is enjoying Sunday dinner with her family when two explosions occur in a nearby neighborhood.
However, if you’re put off by such a large backlist, the mystery itself will make sense even if you haven’t read the previous books. Slaughter has woven a complex web of character relationships that can only be understood by reading the books in order, so I’d suggest starting way back at the beginning with Blindsided, the first book in her Grant County series, which will eventually tie into this one. It’s possible to read The Last Widow without having read the previous books in the series, but it’s not something I’d recommend. Unfortunately, the part of the book that dealt with Will going undercover fell completely flat. The Last Widow is the ninth installment in her Will Trent series, and I was initially drawn to its undercover plot. Karin Slaughter has been an auto-buy author for me since 2010, so this review has been a hard one for me to write.
