Fallen makes up for this by having the entire plot revolve around Faith, who after Betty, becoming even more of a favorite. The 'will they, won't they' question is finally answered.Īfter reading book 4, I really missed Faith, Amanda, and, of course, Betty. 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. I love how these two play off of each other. Will is there to support Faith both as a friend and partner. 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. This all happens in the first chapter and the book never really slows down. 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. When Faith Martin drives to her mother’s house to pick up her newborn daughter, Faith discovers her mother, Evelyn, is missing.

It is the work of a master of the thriller at the top of her game, and a whirlwind of unrelenting suspense.įallen is a fast-paced, action-packed, Faith Martin centered addition to the Will Trent Series. Karin Slaughter's most exhilarating novel yet is a thrilling journey through the heart and soul, where the personal and the criminal collide, and conflicted loyalties threaten to destroy reputations and ruin lives. Faith will have to go up against the people she respects the most in order to find her mother and bring the truth to light-or bury it forever. The thin blue line hides police corruption, bribery, even murder.

But Faith isn't just a cop anymore-she's a witness. To find her mother, she'll need the help of her partner, Will Trent, and they'll both need the help of trauma doctor Sara Linton. When the hostage situation turns deadly, Faith is left with too many questions, not enough answers. She sees a hostage situation in the bedroom. All that the Georgia Bureau of Investigations taught Faith Mitchell goes out the window when she charges into her mother's house, gun drawn. Her infant daughter is hidden in a shed behind the house.

Faith Mitchell's mother isn't answering her phone. There's no police training stronger than a cop's instinct.
