Discover the first novel in the gripping Will Trent series, from the Sunday Times bestselling crime and thriller author.

Now a major TV Series on Disney+

When Atlanta police detective Michael Ormewood is called out to a murder scene, he finds himself faced with one of the most brutal murders of his career.

As a one-off killing it is shocking, but it soon becomes clear Aleesha Monroe is just the latest victim in a series of similar attacks.

Twenty-four hours later, the violence Michael sees every day explodes in his own back yard.

And it seems the mystery surrounding Monroe's death is inextricably entangled with a past that refuses to stay buried...

Critic reviews

An explosive thriller with plenty of twists - this is criminally spectacular
Triptych is structured and paced brilliantly; the tension is unceasing throughout
Without doubt an accomplished, compelling and complex tale, with page-turning power aplenty
The writing is lean and mean, and the climax will blow you away
Gripping, gruesome and definitely not for the faint-hearted
Slaughter deftly turns all assumptions on their head ... Her ability to make you buy into one reality, then another, means that the surprises - and the violent scenes - keep coming
All stars

Great story although I wish it was the full novel and not a shortened version. Would still recommend. Love all Karin Slaughter books. Great series

Love it

Personally am a great fan of Karin Slaughter books, and especially of this series.
Love the two sided storytelling, but annoyingly it is an abridged version which makes it feel a bit jumpy in between. Despite the off pacing, I would still recommend

Great story and narration… but abridged.

Absolutely loved this book & couldn’t put it down, cannot wait to get started on the second book in the Will Trent Series!

Amazing book!

I've read the book, and loved it. I wanted to start the series on audible and was wary that it was an unabridged version. The problem isn't the story or the narration, it was the jarring edits for the unabridged version.
It jumped in places and led me to lose the plot a bit, it really needs to be redone as an unabridged version.
And, the edits seem to minimise Will Trent's involvement in the story.
Saying that, I enjoyed it, the writing is great. I've skipped Fractured, as that's unabridged too, gone straight to Genesis as from then on I think they're all unabridged.

Good but unabridged version very annoying

There needs to be an unabridged version or perhaps just read the book. Narration not great either

ABRIDGED
