The story contains heavy descriptions of torture, kidnapping, gun violence, and narcotic abuse. If you’re after something lighthearted, this is not it.maryehavens's review

Slaughter definitely knows how to write a thriller! There were some turns of phrases in this book that were......harsh. Slaughter throws in lines and curse words that make you go "really?? was that necessary?" The one that stands out to me is "get the dirt out of your vagina." Uh.....o.k. Haven't heard that one before. And a lot of the c-word.
Still, the story was good (although, I thought the big twist at the end was a little farfetched) and it was fast paced which is exactly what I was looking for.
I'm very interested in reading more of her works. I know there are a lot so I'm happy to add her to my rotation of "treats" - authors that I know will give me a good story.

I enjoyed this book. The characters were good and it's nice to see them continue to develop. The plot was good, there were a few twists and it was predictable at times.
