Cop Town

The unputdownable crime suspense thriller from No.1 Sunday Times bestselling author




A hunt for a killer in a city on the edge

'Karin Slaughter is simply one of the best thriller writers working today, and Cop Town shows the author at the top of her game... I would follow her anywhere!' Gillian Flynn
_________________________________________

Atlanta, 1974

As a brutal killing and a furious manhunt rock the city, Kate Murphy wonders if her first day on the police force will also be her last.

But Kate is not the only woman on the force who is finding things tough. Maggie Lawson followed her uncle and brother into the ranks to prove her worth in their cynical eyes.

When Maggie and Kate become partners, and are sidelined in the search for the city's cop killer, their fury, pain, and pride finally reach boiling point. But are they prepared to risk everything as they venture into the city's darkest heart?
