Last Breath by Karin Slaughter

adventurous dark mysterious tense medium-paced

4.0

Flora is an innocent child… but is she really? This is what Lawyer Charlie is bound to find out. Thinking she’s helping a teenager get immunity from her grandparents, Charlie starts to help Flora. However, that’s not what Charlie is actually in for. 

I enjoyed the fact that this book uses how innocent teenagers can act as the downfall for the main teen. Seeing Floras life unfold as she tells it to Charlie, but then to find out the truth when Flora is being scrutinized by the police is great. 

I didn’t quite understand the back story to the reasoning on why the issue with Charlie’s dad is brought up, but that could be something that’s in the other books. 

Overall, this was a great thriller/mystery kind of book. A great short read/listen!
