Holy cow. Karin Slaughter writes an amazing story that pulled me in from the beginning and never once let go. A new favorite author of mine. Tying two horrific events together - once current, one past - the Quinn family becomes the spotlight yet again. Charlie Quinn is following in her father's footsteps and defending those that no one else will touch. When a girl is arrested as the obvious shooter at a school that left a young girl dead, Charlie thinks there may be more to it.

But this rabbit hole runs deeper than anyone knows. The truth will eventually come to light, but not before many lives are torn apart, old wounds re-opened, and past wrongs are forgiven. The story is full of revelations, most of which I didn't completely see coming.

Superbly in-depth characters and a plot full of suspense and tension, I hope to see more in this new series soon.
