Publisher Comments

The internationally bestselling author squarely in the ranks of Patricia Cornwell and Kathy Reichs (Publishers Weekly) shows off her superb talent with this brilliantly conceived, skillfully executed tale of suspense.

In Karin Slaughter's exciting new thriller, an officer is shot point-blank in the Grant County police station and police chief Jeffrey Tolliver is wounded, setting off a terrifying hostage situation with medical examiner Sara Linton at the center. Working outside the station, Lena Adams, newly reinstated to the force, and Frank Wallace, Jeffrey's second in command, must try to piece together who the shooter is and how to rescue their friends before Jeffrey dies. For the sins of the past have caught up with Sara and Jeffrey -- with a vengeance ...

Deftly interweaving present and past, Slaughter -- dubbed the new face of crime by Book magazine -- offers another brilliant knife-edge tale of suspense that cements her place among the most outstanding practitioners of crime fiction today.

Review

“Well–crafted…Slaughter skillfully maintains the tension in the parallel stories.” Atlanta Journal-Constitution

Review

"Amazingly, Slaughter manages between past and present stories while maintaining suspense in both." Kirkus Reviews

Review

“Lauded on two continents as the most significant new voice in American crime fiction.” Daily Telegraph (Sydney, Australia)

Review

“Skillfully told in both the then and the now, and quite scary on both fronts.” New York Daily News

Review

“Harrowing…Compelling…Solidly and uniquely plotted…Realistic and believable…Indelible again proves the superb indelible mark Slaughte is making on mystery fiction.” Florida Sun-Sentinel

Review

“Gripping…complex characters with credible relationships…Slaughters tightly disciplined rhythm and occasional sly humor keep readers hooked right up to the end.” Publishers Weekly

Review

“[Slaughter] has a bighearted way…and a knack for grisly detail.” Entertainment Weekly

Synopsis

Two armed men enter the police station in tiny Heartsdale, Georgia, and open fire. When the shooting stops, an officer is dead, Police Chief Jeffrey Tolliver is seriously wounded, and the survivors -- including a class of grade-school children and medical examiner Sara Linton -- are held hostage. In a tense standoff that could erupt at any moment into more bloodletting -- with her ex-husband on the threshold of death -- Sara must search for answers and an escape in the memories of a time at the start of their relationship when another brutal, shocking crime shattered their small-town world. Because the sins of the past have caught up with Sara and Jeffrey ... with a vengeance.

For anyone who like books along the lines of Patricia Cornwell or TV shows like CSI or Law & Order, I strongly recommend adding Karin Slaughter to your reading library. Her characters are vivid and her stories are riviting. I purchased one of her books on a whim and ended up going back and purchasing all the others. She also has a really neat website in which she tell you how to make one of the main character's famous pot roasts. The interactions between her characters are realistic and compelling. Two thumbs up from me!
