Relation During Books A Faint Cold Fear (Grant County #3)
The third pulse-pounding novel in the Grant County series from New York Times bestselling author Karin Slaughter.
Sara Linton, medical examiner in the small town of Heartsdale, Georgia, is called out to an apparent suicide on the local college campus. The mutilated body provides little in the way of clues -- and the college authorities are eager to avoid a scandal -- but for Sara and police chief Jeffrey Tolliver, things don't add up.
Two more suspicious suicides follow, and a young woman is brutally attacked. For Sara, the violence strikes far too close to home. And as Jeffrey pursues the sadistic killer, he discovers that ex-police detective Lena Adams, now a security guard on campus, may be in possession of crucial information. But, bruised and angered by her expulsion from the force, Lena seems to be barely capable of protecting herself, let alone saving the next victim...

Well, they do say "Practice makes Perfect" and I must say this was a vast improvement on the first two in the series.Most of the characters are intriguing. I seriously don't know what to make of them. Sara, Jeffrey, Lena ... especially Lena. No matter what Jill Rosen said, Lena had rules and one of them was that she never drank before eight at night. Was in Vegas recently and visited Jimmy Buffet's restaurant! It wasn't five o'clock there but it was somewhere!! "Ritalin, of course. HisAnother great book by Karin Slaughter. Sara and Jeffrey are back and this time the local college seems to be a tad bloody. (More than a tad really.)The story was really good and Lena didn't annoy me nearly as much as she has previously. (I'm not sure it that's a good or bad sign.) Looking forward to book #4
I keep trying to like Lena in this series but dang it's really, really hard. Even Sara kinda ticked me off a bit, she seems prickly about silly things. I like these books enough to continue though.

This particular installment of the Grant County series felt different than the other's I've read (including Slaughter's books that aren't part of this series). It was definitely more focused on the characters than it was on the murder, which I had mixed feelings about. On one hand, if we are going to be following these characters through a series, I want to know about them, but on the other hand I felt like after the opening of the book (which started off with a bang!) I was missing some of the
4 StarsWowza! Talk about Heart-stopping and Gut-wrenching!When Sara Linton is called to a crime scene on a College campus, it appears to be an apparent death by suicide. Then another crime happens, right under her nose. This time its personal and its bad. Really bad and Sara cant help but blame herself. Lena Adams is now working at the University as Campus Security. Gone are the days of her being a Police Officer. After what happened to her a year ago, she just couldnt hack it. Now, however, she
3.5 stars
I always enjoy reading Karin Slaughter. I read one of her newer books and then decided to read an older one. I do think she gets better with each book but completely enjoyed reading this book #3 in the series and enjoyed reconnecting with the characters. Did not figure it out until the end of the book which is something I always enjoy.
