This is [Karin] Slaughter’s best book to date, and readers unfamiliar with her work will find this one a perfect place to begin.”—Associated Press There’s no police training stronger than a cop’s instinct.
Faith Mitchell’s mother isn’t answering her phone.
Her front door is open.
There’s a bloodstain above the knob.
Everything Faith learned in the academy goes out the window when she charges into her mother’s house, gun drawn.
She sees a man dead in the laundry room, a hostage situation in the bedroom.
What she doesn’t see is her mother.
When the hostage situation turns deadly, Faith is left with too many questions.
She’ll need the help of her partner, Will Trent, and trauma doctor Sara Linton to get some answers.
But Faith isn’t just a cop anymore, she’s a witness—and a suspect.
To find her mother, Faith will have to cross the thin blue line and bring the truth to light—or bury it forever.
“An absolute master .

In the early 1970s, Corey Sifter, the son of working-class parents, becomes a yard boy on the grand estate of the powerful Metarey family.
Soon, through the family’s generosity, he is a student at a private boarding school and an aide to the great New York senator Henry Bonwiller, who is running for president.
Before long, Corey finds himself involved with one of the Metarey daughters as well, and he begins to leave behind the world of his upbringing.
As the Bonwiller campaign gains momentum, Corey finds himself caught up in a complex web of events in which loyalty, politics, sex, and gratitude conflict with morality, love, and the truth.

This propulsive post-apocalyptic thriller “in which Agatha Christie’s And Then There Were None collides with Stephen King’s The Shining” (NPR) follows a group of survivors stranded at a hotel as the world descends into nuclear war and the body of a young girl is discovered in one of the hotel’s water tanks.
Jon thought he had all the time in the world to respond to his wife’s text message: I miss you so much.
I feel bad about how we left it.
Love you.
But as he’s waiting in the lobby of the L’Hotel Sixieme in Switzerland after an academic conference, still mulling over how to respond to his wife, he receives a string of horrifying push notifications.
Washington, DC, has been hit with a nuclear bomb, then New York, then London, and finally Berlin.
That’s all he knows before news outlets and social media goes black—and before the clouds on the horizon turn orange.
Two months later, there are twenty survivors holed up at the hotel, a place already tainted by its strange history of suicides and murders.
Jon and the rest try to maintain some semblance of civilization.
But when he goes up to the roof to investigate the hotel’s worsening water quality, he is shocked to discover the body of a young girl floating in one of the tanks, and is faced with the terrifying possibility that there might be a killer among the group.
As supplies dwindle and tensions rise, Jon becomes obsessed with discovering the truth behind the girl’s death.
In this “brilliantly executed...chilling and extraordinary” post-apocalyptic mystery, “the questions Jameson poses—who will be with you at the end of the world, and what kind of person will you be?—are as haunting as the plot itself.” (Emily St.
John Mandel, nationally bestselling author of Station Eleven).
