i love karin slaughter and this is one of her only books i hadn’t read yet, so i was determined to read it eventually. just know that parts of this book are hard to read bc it takes place in 70s atlanta.

Another fantastic Karin Slaughter book! A police procedural, not always following procedure, Cop Town deals with racism and sexism, as well as a cop killer. As always, KS pulled me into this twisty tale from the prologue and kept me entertained throughout.

I was given this book by Net galley for an honest review. I really liked this book. It pulled me right in and I couldn't put it down. Kate and Maggie are 2 police officers in the 1970's. There are a lot of prejudices that they have to deal with. I have read a lot of Karin Slaughters books and Cop Town is different than any of her other books. Cop Town is now one of my favorite books by her.
