Will Trent is a brilliant agent with the Georgia Bureau of Investigation. Newly in love, he is beginning to put a difficult past behind him. Then a local college student goes missing, and Will is inexplicably kept off the case by his supervisor and mentor, deputy director Amanda Wagner. Will cannot fathom Amanda’s motivation until the two of them literally collide in an abandoned orphanage they have both been drawn to for different reasons. Decades before, when his father was imprisoned for murder, this was Will’s home. It appears that the case that launched Amanda’s career forty years ago has suddenly come back to life—and it involves the long-held mystery of Will’s birth and parentage. Now these two dauntless investigators will each need to face down demons from the past if they are to prevent an even greater terror from being unleashed.

Charlene (charlenethestickler) | 656 comments I'll try to catch up with this one in the series, somehow...

As I was looking at the series list, I noticed there is a #5.5 book.
Is this required reading before #6?

Dawn I didn't read the novella, and managed the series just fine. If I remember, I think it was a backstory.

It isn't a backstory but also doesn't add to the story arc, unless some of these folks show up in later stories. It's just a quick case that Will sort of stumbled into and handled on his own. The timeline is definitely after #5. I really enjoyed it.
