Karin Slaughter is quickly becoming one of my new favorites for thrillers. When I got Girl, Forgotten, I didn't realize it was a sequel to Pieces of Her, but it functions fine as a standalone, too.
40 years after Emily Vaughn was brutally murdered on prom night, New U.S. Marshal Andrea Oliver begins investigating while on assignment in the small town where the murder took place.
I loved how well written the characters were. Even the ones that were absolutely the worst were realistic. I also loved how the dual timelines slowly unraveled the mystery of who killed Emily. I will say that the crime was not for everyone and was quite brutal.
