Holy shit! This book is just all sorts of whacked out craziness. If I had to describe it I would say “Prisoners” meets “Zodiac” meets “a certain Paul Thomas Anderson flick”, with a sprinkle of “Gone Girl”. 

I throughly enjoyed this book, and I have to say Karin Slaughter, you had me in the palm of your hand- story was fucked up in more ways than one- but MAN IT WAS LIKE WATCHING A MOVIE AND I WAS AT THE EDGE OF MY SEAT!!!! 

Though, would say if you are one who can’t handle gruesome or distributing descriptions, you may want to stray away from this one.
