Marsha Woerner reviewed The Silent Wife by Karin Slaughter
Review of 'The Silent Wife' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
It really was a good book, but jumping back and forth between current time and the past (in the story) was extremely unsettling! Had I actually read some of the prequels, I suppose that the names of Sarah's husbands and the time of the death of Jonathan could have kept me more grounded, but truly, the times could have been made clearer through the titles of chapters or something.
The story development was good! And the pictures of the characters was realistic: for instance, Tommy's reluctance to be interviewed and harassed (?) was amazingly touching and real. And the question of re-digging up a previous victim felt gut wrenching. The whole situation was uncomfortable and worthy of the appropriate consideration.
