Karin Slaughter never misses, and After That Night is no exception.
While in medical school, Sara’s life was changed forever by a brutal assault. Years later, she’s picked up the pieces, becoming a successful doctor and engaged to the man of her dreams. She believes she’s finally put the past behind her. However, when a car crash brings in a young victim who had been assaulted before the crash, it becomes clear that, against all odds, Sara’s assault and this new one are connected. Perhaps it’s time for Sara to learn the truth about what happened after that night.
It’s a gripping read, and I thoroughly enjoyed it.
