About this listen
The number one best-selling thriller featuring Will Trent and Sara Linton, from one of the world's best loved crime writers
'Simply one of the best thriller writers working today.' Gillian Flynn
He watches.
A woman runs alone in the woods. She convinces herself she has no reason to be afraid, but she's wrong. A predator is stalking the women of Grant County. He lingers in the shadows, until the time is just right to snatch his victim.
He waits.
A decade later, the case has been closed. The killer is behind bars. But then another young woman is brutally attacked and left for dead, and the MO is identical.
He takes.
Although the original trail has gone cold—memories have faded, witnesses have disappeared—agent Will Trent and forensic pathologist Sara Linton must re-open the cold case. But the clock is ticking, and the killer is determined to find his perfect silent wife....

She's back
I really like this authors work, have read her stuff throughout the years.
Recently felt disappointed... almost like perhaps success was making her lazy. But this book is awesome and lve still a chapter or so to go. It feels like the old stuff (which rightly brought her fame) but its not, its new. So happy that she is back to mixing great story, awesome characters with that touch strange detail inserted in the oddest of areas that binds it all together.
I would have given 5 's across the board but the narrator is just fine 85% of the time its that other 25% - yikes.
Also the word scrunshie? It Is used must be more than 25 times and l dont know what that is. I can guess but l refuse to google.
Anyhow l would not read this one on its own, if you have never read her stuff start at the start because she is worth it.

Way longer than it needed to be.
It wasn't intricate enough to be so long. It got boring. It would have been okay if it was half the length.

The Silent Wife
I enjoyed this story. I love the reader! I got a little confused with the amount of characters and having the story switch back and forth but I worked it out. I look forward to the next story

Not her best
This is a long way from Karen Slaughter’s best. I may feel differently if I had read it but the narration grated. When it was plain narration it was fine, when it was speech, it was poor. When it was male speech it made the character sound uneducated and inarticulate.

The narrator is SO irritating!
The storyline wasn’t too bad but that narrator made it difficult to want to keep following.

Story great but bad accents in parts
Good to listen to some of the time. Love this authors books. But the accents of certain characters were just awful and put me off the book.

Story good, narration BAAADDD!!!
Really enjoyed the story, and glad I pushed through to the end. I very nearly didn't because the readers accents and voices were horrible! her natural reading voice was great but all the other tones/accents were atrocious and completely distracting.

Always love Karin Slaughter Books
Great story
Disappointing narration, very hard to listen to the male voices. Any other book and I would not have listened to it, but I gritted my teeth because I knew the story would be good.
