Karin Slaughter's books are so, so dark and so, so easy to devour. Her stories are complex and layered while also being utterly page-turning. Stay up all night reading, in more ways than one.

I'm new to Karin Slaughter, this is only my second books of theirs I've read and I'm quickly becoming a fan of this author. Slaughter writes a multi-layered, dark, engrossing thriller, but one that is not for the faint hearted, you have to be prepared for disturbing and at times gross depicitions of henious crimes - note however this is done for the benefit of the story NOT as just grotesque for the sake of it. If you like the thriller movie Seven then this is the kind of thriller you will get absolutely emersed in.

I hope to read more Slaughter books this year!

A good entertainment, got tired of reading 3 different narrator, the story was not as fast pace as I thought it would be.
