The last novel Sara was in Beyond Reach should have been called Shattered for what it did to the readers-- very few novels have that shocking of an ending. We now know what the writer is capable of -- it was merciful of her not to bring Sara back in the last book. I only opened her last book Fractured reluctantly. A year was not enough to get over it. Apparently Karin Slaughter had not gotten over it yet either, because she sauntered off to a different area of Georgia to reprise the deeply flawed characters of Will Trent and Faith Mitchell from Triptych.

This book, Undone, brings all of these characters together in Atlanta.

Will and Faith are locked in a stormy partnership, part-friendship, part-bickering sibling style. They come to police work from wildly divergent backgrounds, Will after being raised in the orphanage in Georgia, Faith after struggling most of her life after having given birth to a child at the age of 15. Will struggles with dyslexia that makes it virtually impossible for him to read without the aids he has built into his life. Faith works on coming to terms with two heath issues that present themselves immediately in this book: diabetes and pregnancy, which bring her right into Sara's new world, the ER in Grady Hospital in Atlanta. Sara left Grant County when she discovered that she could no longer survive in the places where Jeffrey had ever been.

Karin Slaughter is a master of characterization. This is a description of Will and Faith's boss, Amanda Wagner: "She favored monochromatic power suits with skirts that hit below her knee and stockings that showed off the definition of what Will had to admit were remarkably good calves for a woman he often thought of as the Antichrist."

This book is a thriller to its very core. Karin Slaughter is a master of this genre and brings to her books a gritty realism that is brilliant and earth-shattering.

Couldn't put this book down. Characterization excellent. Learned so much more about Will, Faith, and Amanda, and then got to know Sara, from the Grant Co. Series. Reading as a Kindle book meant that I could not read the ending before finishing the book.

Once again Karin Slaughter has written another Will Trent book that I couldn't put down. Once I get to the end, I fnd myself sad that it is almost over. Can't wait to download the next one in the series to my Kindle.

The story was very, very good. It held my attention so good I didn't want to put it down. Combining characters from the past series and the characters from the new series was a good approach because I missed the characters from the previous series. I hope that she uses Dr. Sarah from Grant County again in other episodes. I really like her take on Will Trent and how Faith Mitchell is able to work with his apparent handicap and as a team they are different and superb. Loooking forward to another book featuring this cast of characters and the twists and plots that Karin Slaughter weaves so well.

Love getting to know and deepen my "relationship" with the characters. Easy and fun to read. looking forward to all the next books in the series

Slaughter creates complex, realistic and unusual characters very unlike the cardboard types you often meet in thrillers. Her women are amazing and deal with common everyday issues that I have never seen brought up in novels. And all her characters are quite flawed as well as accomplished in some way.

Really good. It made me hate Angie even more. Anything with Will Trent in it is worth reading over and over again. Karin Slaughter is one of my favorite writers. Her characters are people you know and can relate with. This is a must read.

I started reading Slaughter's book a couple of years ago and she's one of my favorite Thriller authors. I couldn't put this book down although it did fall a little short for me at the end. Much like her other books, i enjoy all the main characters and their back stories - it's one the reasons her series is set apart from other authors.

I've probably read most of Karin Slaughter's books and have always enjoyed them. This book does not stand up to her usual standards. It had a surprising ending, but for the most part, I found it boring.

Is it just me or are most mystery novels overpraised by both critic and readers alike? I thought Slaughter's FRACTURED was one of the best thrillers I've read in years---I read it on vacation and one night stayed in my hotel room to finish it---but this new one, UNDONE, seems like a miss to me. Slaughter is a master plotter; she has a real gift for laying out a series of surprises, and she full-bodied and believable heroes and heroines, but it may be that she loves them too much. In UNDONE, there are pages and pages of Faith's cranky inner angst, but after a while, I just wanted Slaughter to get back to the book's core mystery, which, in the end, didn't make much sense, and was really too silly for words. I closed the book wishing that talented writers such as Slaughter would stop locking themselves into series characters. I guess that's where the money is these days, but I fear it can lead to self-indulgence and navel-gazing, for both the character and its creator. How about trying a stand-alone book, Ms. Slaughter?
