Karin Slaughter’s “knack for grisly detail” (Entertainment Weekly) comes through loud and clear in the opening pages of Fractured, her new bone-chilling thriller that showcases all the reasons she’s “one of the best crime novelists in America” (The Washington Post).
When she surprises a strange man standing over her daughter’s brutalized body, blind rage propels Abigail Campano to strangle him with her bare hands. Only later, when it’s revealed she was mistaken—the dead girl is her teenage daughter’s look-alike friend—does her shock and grief give way to hope that Emma is still alive…
Judging from the number of stab wounds on the victim, and the notable absence of a ransom note, Special Agent Will Trent cautions the wealthy Campanos that whoever kidnapped Emma may not be motivated by money. Which means Will is in a race against time, and it doesn’t help that Atlanta detective Faith Mitchell holds some kind of grudge against him. But if they don’t pull together, Will fears a deranged killer is sure to gain a blood-soaked upper hand—and there’s no doubt it will be clutching a butcher knife, honed to hair-splitting sharpness…and ready to plunge.
