I think this was her first published book. It was good, but the other ones I’ve read by her were so much better. Still, it’s good getting to know Will Trent’s doctor friend.

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.
