Wow. 5 stars without a doubt.
I had read a few Karin Slaughter books before deciding to go right back to the beginning and it was the best choice. The story was brutal as hell, it kept me guessing and Karin Slaughter’s writing and storytelling is, as always, beautiful.
This deserves to be at the very top of your TBR if you’re interested in dark, brutal and twisty storylines.
