Reseña del editor:

When Atlanta housewife Abigail Campano comes home unexpectedly one afternoon, she walks into a nightmare. A broken window, a bloody footprint on the stairs and, most devastating of all, the horrifying sight of her teenage daughter lying dead on the landing, a man standing over her with a bloody knife. The struggle which follows changes Abigail’s life forever. When the local police make a misjudgement which not only threatens the investigation but places a young girl’s life in danger, the case is handed over to Special Agent Will Trent of the Criminal Apprehension Team – teamed with detective Faith Mitchell, a woman who resents him from their first meeting. But in the relentless heat of a Georgia summer, Will and Faith realise that they must work together to find the brutal killer who has targeted one of Atlanta’s wealthiest, most privileged communities – before it’s too late...

Contraportada:

Praise for Karin Slaughter 'Criminally spectacular' OK! 'Without doubt an accomplished, compelling and complex tale, with page-turning power aplenty' Daily Express 'Expertly shifting back and forth in both time and point of view, Slaughter builds the suspense to a perfect crescendo ... a timely and unsettling read' Publishers Weekly 'Brilliantly chilling' heat 'Confirms her at the summit of the school of writers specialising in forensic medicine and terror' The Times 'It's beautifully paced, appropriately grisly, and terrifyingly plausible. Who says there's anything peaceful and quiet about small-town America' Time Out 'A great read ... crime fiction at its finest' Michael Connelly 'A fast-paced and unsettling story ... A compelling and fluid read' Daily Telegraph 'The writing is lean and mean, and the climax will blow you away' Independent 'Slaughter's plotting is relentless, piling on surprises and twists ... A good read that should come with a psychological health warning' Guardian 'A compelling, exciting read' Sunday Express Fiction [barcode]
