Fallen audiobook

Fallen is a fast-paced, action-packed, Faith Martin centered addition to the Will Trent Series.When Faith Martin drives to her mother’s house to pick up her newborn daughter, Faith discovers her mother, Evelyn, is missing. Not only that, but there is also blood all over the house, a dead man in the laundry room, and bad guys ready to pounce on Faith. This all happens in the first chapter and the book never really slows down. Faith not only has to deal with being a new mother, but she also has to deal with her mother’s kidnapping, her brother’s return (he’s an a**hole,), her baby daddy, and some dark secrets from the past. Will is there to support Faith both as a friend and partner. I love how these two play off of each other. Will is also dealing with Betty having an unfortunate encounter with a Hawk (this had me LMAO), the brief, yet annoying return of Angie, as well as his growing feelings for Sara. The "will they, won't they" question is finally answered.After reading book 4, I really missed Faith, Amanda, and, of course, Betty. Fallen makes up for this by having the entire plot revolve around Faith, who after Betty, becoming even more of a favorite. I enjoyed seeing how her character has grown and also learning more about her family history.Onto book 6!

4.5 stars I have a theory that it's nearly impossible to read a Karin Slaughter book in more than a day. She's one of the few authors whose books I NEED to get and devour on the day they're released because I'm so engrossed in the characters and have been waiting a whole year to find out what happen

Fallen by Karin Slaughter is a 2012 Dell/Random House publication. This fifth installment in the Will Trent series may be, arguably, I’m sure, the best one of the series thus far. Evelyn is babysitting for Faith when she becomes a victim of a home invasion. Once Faith arrives, she finds Emma safe and sound, but Evelyn has been taken. From this point on, the drama, action and suspense are a non-stop rollercoaster ride. Many burning questions are answered and some huge developments take place in the Sara/Will/Angie saga. Slaughter really knows how to create rich characters, both good and bad, and manages to blend personal dramas with crime stories with perfect precision and timing. I was pleased to see all the characters take part in this one, in one way or another, and I was so happy to finally learn the truth about Evelyn’s past, and see Will begin to heal and break away from some influences that have been holding him back. I just hope it sticks this time. I highly recommend this series, if you haven’t read it yet. Slaughter is one the best crime/thriller authors out there and Will Trent is a terrific character! I strongly suggest reading the series in order for the best enjoyment of them. 4.5 stars

5 Thrilling StarsOh My Goodness! Has My Heart Stopped Pounding?! I think Not!Poor Faith Mitchell! My Heart was in my throat for most of this novel. “Fallen” by Karin Slaughter got me good. I felt for Faith Mitchell so much I couldn’t imagine being in her position. Driving up to her mother, Evelyn Mitchell’s house, expecting to pick up her baby girl and finding blood on the door handle? Then discovering the house in disarray, her mother gone, a dead body and having to protect herself and her daughter against two assailants?! All in the span of a few minutes?! Dear me! After what happened, Faith can’t even take part in the investigation! She has to leave it up to her boss Amanda Wagner and Will Trent. It’s those Secrets that’ll Getcha! What a Terrifying Thriller! I just Loved “Fallen!” Kudos to Karen Slaughter for giving the readers an action packed ride through CRAZY TOWN! I know I said I loved Faith Mitchell in my last review, but my love for her then didn’t compare to my love for her now! She is one strong woman! As for her partnership with Will Trent? I love how they have each other’s backs regardless. Thank you once again to my local library for the loan.Published on Goodreads on 2.17.20.

Finally!!! Will has someone in his life that actually cares about him and understands what he went through as a kid. I love Sara for him. Great book as well.
