A mysterious kidnapping
On a hot summer night, a scientist from the Centers for Disease Control is grabbed by unknown assailants in a shopping center parking lot. Vanished into thin air, the authorities are desperate to save the doctor.
A devastating explosion
One month later, the serenity of a sunny Sunday afternoon is shattered by the boom of a ground-shaking blast—followed by another seconds later. One of Atlanta’s busiest and most important neighborhood’s has been bombed—the location of Emory University, two major hospitals, the FBI headquarters, and the CDC.
A diabolical enemy
Medical examiner Sara Linton and her partner Will Trent, an investigator with the Georgia Bureau of Investigation, rush to the scene—and into the heart of a deadly conspiracy that threatens to destroy thousands of innocent lives. When the assailants abduct Sara, Will goes undercover to save her and prevent a massacre—putting his own life on the line for the woman and the country he loves.

To be fair, Karin Slaughter is one of our favorites! I had eight book clubs reading different books from her at the same time this year!
This one, like so many of her others grabbed me by the throat from the first chapter. Will Trent and Sara Linton are also some all-time favorite characters. They are flawed in ways we can all relate to. The kicker in this book was a bit expected but also caught me off guard because that's how Karin intends it... always. When people say "Oh, I figured it out from the beginning." I seriously want to break out the four letter L-word and straight up call them a LIAR.
I enjoyed this book and couldn't put it down!
