A Faint Cold Fear by Karin Slaughter
THE STUNNING NEW THRILLER FROM INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER KARIN SLAUGHTER Sara Linton, medical examiner in the small town of Heartsdale, is called out to an apparent suicide on the local college campus. The mutilated body provides little in the way of clues - and the college authorities are keen to avoid a scandal - but for Sara and police chief Jeffrey Tolliver, things don't add up. Two more suspicious suicides follow, and a young woman is brutally attacked. For Sara, the violence strikes far too close to home. And as Jeffrey pursues the sadistic killer, he discovers that ex-police detective Lena Adams, now a security guard on campus, may be in possession of crucial information. But, bruised and angered by her expulsion from the force, Lena seems to be barely capable of protecting herself, let alone saving the next victim...
A definite return to form for Karin Slaughter's Sara Linton novels after the pedestrian KisscutThis time around, Linton is called out to an apparent suicide at the local college campus, where the mutilated corpse provides no clues. The college wants to avoid scandal but for Linton and Police Chief Jeffrey Tolliver things just don't add up. Two more suspicious suicides follow and a young woman is brutally attacked. As Tolliver pursues the sadistic killer, he finds that ex-detective Lena Adams, angered by her expulsion from the police, is holding crucial information. This one is markedly better than Kisscut, which veered between romance and thriller; Slaughter here shows the cutting edge which made Blindsighted such a success. Readers will once again be sympathetic towards Linton, who is a terrific heroine.
Karin Slaughter is the author of the international bestsellers Blindsighted and Kisscut, and is currently writing the fourth novel Grant County novel, Indelible.
