"This is the single most underrated film of the entire French New Wave. Its near obsessive tracking of Maurice Ronet through the wet Paris streets as he retraces the steps of a wasted life makes for one of the most tightly focused of the era’s film portraits of a desperate man at the end of his rope. Its slow build toward an inexorable end is Louis Malle’s most nuanced work—this from a director who was already noted for his almost classical discipline. Ronet, until then largely thought of as a lightweight romantic film actor, surrenders himself to the downhill yet strangely transcendent fate that awaits him on the mirror of his room."

Great game that forces you to try and think like the person playing as the ghost (0 more)
Visions can be extremely difficult to choose (0 more)
Much like clue this is a murder mystery game, though there is a twist, the ghost of the victim gives you clues in the form of visions. The ghost is not allowed to talk to the other players except to tell them whether they are right or not. It is on the longer side and can be quite frustrating depending on the visions the ghost gives out. Each other player follows the path of a specific suspect to find what room they were in and what weapon they had access to, the game encourages cooperation between players but does not require it

Will Trent and his partner Faith Mitchell are in the emergency room of Grady Hospital. Faith had just passed out. As they are there a woman is brought into the emergency room. She had been held captive, raped, tortured and then hit by a car. Together, Will and Faith try to find out who this woman is and where she came from. Most importantly who did this to her and are there others.

This is the first book I have read by Karin Slaughter. I am hooked already. I will be going back now to read the first two Will Trent books so I can get a better grasp of who this man is.

No one believes he is a cop. He is too quiet and gets down on himself too easily. I guess he doesn't have that cop ego(that's why I like him).

My main motivation for reading this book was to prepare for a Q&A Karin Slaughter will be doing on April 8th. If interested in joining the discussion, join the group A Good Thriller. I'm already filling with questions to ask.
