Editorial Review:

Product Description:


An apparent student suicide has brought medical examiner Sara Linton to the local college campus, along with her ex-husband, police chief Jeffrey Tolliver. But a horribly mutilated corpse yields up few answers. And a suspicious rash of subsequent "suicides" suggests that a different kind of terror is stalking the youth of Heartsdale, Georgia -- a nightmare that is coming to prey on Sara Linton's loved ones.



A small town is being transformed into a killing ground. And the key to a sadistic murderer's motive and identity may be held in the unsteady hands of a campus security guard -- a former police detective driven from the force by the hellish memories that will never leave her. Lena Adams survived the unthinkable and has paid a devastating price. Now the survival of future victims may depend upon her ... when she can barely protect herself.

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - another great one!!!
I am a huge fan of Karin Slaughter and this book did not disappoint me. It is another can't put it down until the end book.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Lena Adams steals the show
In this third installment of the Grant County series, county medical examiner Sara Linton and police chief Jeffrey Tolliver (who is also Sara's ex-husband and on again/off again beau) investigate an apparent suicide at the local college campus. However, when Sara's sister is assaulted at the scene then another suicide takes place Sara and Jeffrey suspect that the incidents are related.

Meanwhile, Jeffrey's former partner and now disgruntled campus security officer Lena Adams is using ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Disappointed
The book for the most part is well-written. I did care about Sara & Lena up to a point but the story unnecessarily dragged on. But what disappointed me was the unrealisticness of the ending. I saw another reviewer said it is a novel, if you want reality read the news. However, while dramatic freedom is OK for literature, absurdity & stunts insult readers' intelligence. Tessa's survival was absurd. The solution was so far-fetched as to be absurd. And this gimmick of introducing a new plot twist to finally ... Read More



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Not very good
First the positives:

The over-arching storyline is really a pretty good story. I did want to know who did it so I read until the very end.

Now, the negatives:

Too many characters that are introduced just once and then continually referred to from that moment on by their first name. There are nearly 20 characters that I am supposed to remember with no reminder of what they do in the plot. Just a name and I have to go back in to the book and look up who Kevin or Richard ...

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Pretty Good Read
This is the third novel in the Grant County series. The plot in this one, revolves around the investigation of a number of apparent suicides, in the local university campus.

I felt the storyline was pretty good, if not quite unputdownable. There is quite a bit of a 'whodunnit' about it. I thought the the books main characters of Sara Linton, and Jeffrey Tolliver, along with Lena Adams were quite believeable. The dialogue between them was good, as well. The book is certainly worth a read, if you ... Read More
