First Karin Slaughter read! I was also delighted to discover this was mad into a show on Netflix. I’ll def be reading more of her books. Im interested to see where the second book in this series goes. 

This book is pretty violent and descriptive of gory scenes, so if you’re sensitive to topics I don’t suggest reading.
