I'll read anything written by one of my favorite authors, Karin Slaughter. However, I really thought the author took a fatal misstep with Cop Town...until I became totally engrossed by the lead female characters, Maggie and Kate, and utterly obsessed with trying to identify the serial killer. The author had me cringing with the all-too-well written descriptions of the blatant and casual physical and mental brutality that female cops endured in that time and place. Gritty and shocking, Cop Town is a coming of age story for both Maggie and Kate as they battle through nearly unimaginable trials and challenges and emerge stronger for it. Yup, Karin Slaughter is one of my favorite authors for a good reason...she can WRITE!
