Reviews
Few young writers show more promise than the thirty-year-old Slaughter. She writes…with skill, anger, sensitivity, and compassion., Combines the best elements of a noir thriller and the Southern Gothic tradition complete with a brooding atmosphere., Hard to imagine that such a quiet shy girl as Slaughter harbors so fiendish a heart. In Kisscut, Georgia pediatrician Sara Linton and her ex, police chief Jeffrey Tolliver, are caught up in an evil web along with Detective Lena Adams. It begins with a young girl who commits suicide by forcing Jeffrey to shoot her down. Horrified, he's desperate to determine why. Sara, not just the dead Jenny's doctor but also the town's coroner, does the autopsy and makes a horrible discovery: Jenny had been rudely castrated. Lena, wrestling with her own dark demons, joins in an investigation worthy of Andrew Vachs. Man, Kisscut is a killer book, savage but exciting, a strong follow-up to Slaughter's debut in Blindsighted., "Simply one of the best thriller writers working today." -- Gillian Flynn, bestselling author of Gone Girl "A fearless writer. One of the boldest thriller writers working today." -- Tess Gerritsen "Her characters, plot, and pacing are unrivaled among thriller wrtiers." -- Michael Connelly, Few young writers show more promise than the thirty-year-old Slaughter. She writes.with skill, anger, sensitivity, and compassion., "Simply one of the best thriller writers working today." -- Gillian Flynn, bestselling author of Gone Girl "An impressive...landmark on the thriller map." -- Val McDermid "Slaughter knows exactly how a crime scene looks and exactly how much it hurts to lose a loved one... For [her] haunted characters, as for Faulkner's, the past not only isn't dead, it isn't even past." -- Hollywood Reporter "This is a fantastic book. The writing is superb...The mystery is a mind-bender and its architect a master. Everything here rings true and is for that reason satisfying, even when disturbing. And disturbing it is on occasion...Much more provocative, however, is the portrayal of the damage that can be done to the very heart and soul. DON'T MISS THIS BOOK." -- Deadly Pleasures magazine "Slaughter keeps baring her living characters' psychic wounds in scene after scene with a remarkable intensity the reigning postmortem specialists, Patricia Cornwell and Kathy Reichs, can't match" -- Kirkus Reviews

Synopsis
Sara Linton, medical examiner in the small town of Heartsdale, GA, 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 eager 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., The third book in Karin Slaughter's acclaimed Grant County Series. "[A] page-turner . . . Slaughter's plot has more twists than a Slinky factory and the characters' relationships are sharply drawn." --People, starred review "Scary, shocking and perfectly suspenseful." --BookPage Sara Linton, medical examiner in the small town of Heartsdale, GA, is called out to an apparent suicide on the local college campus.
