Three and a half years ago former Grant County medical examiner Sara Linton moved to Atlanta hoping to leave her tragic past behind her. Now working as a doctor in Atlanta�€™s Grady Hospital she is starting to piece her life together. But when a severely wounded young woman is brought in to the emergency room, she finds herself drawn back into a world of violence and terror. The woman has been hit by a car but, naked and brutalised, it�€™s clear that she has been the prey of a twisted mind. When Special Agent Will Trent of the Criminal Investigation Team returns to the scene of the accident, he stumbles on a torture chamber buried deep beneath the earth. And this hidden house of horror reveals a ghastly truth �€“ Sara�€™s patient is just the first victim of a sick, sadistic killer. Wrestling the case away from the local police chief, Will and his partner Faith Mitchell find themselves at the centre of a grisly murder hunt. And Sara, Will and Faith �€“ each with their own wounds and their own secrets �€“ are all that stand between a madman and his next crime�€�

Review:

"Without doubt an accomplished, compelling and complex tale, with page-turning power aplenty" Daily Express "Slaughter's plotting is relentless, piling on surprises and twists ... A good read that should come with a psychological health warning" Guardian "Criminally spectacular" OK! "It's beautifully paced, appropriately grisly, and terrifyingly plausible. Who says there's anything peaceful and quiet about small-town America" Time Out "Brilliantly chilling" heat
