WATCH WILL TRENT ON ABC!

“Expect from a Karin Slaughter crime thriller . . . just the right amount of twists, turns, shocks, surprises and domestic thrill and shrill.”—Parade

The next thrilling suspense featuring Will Trent and Sara Linton from Karin Slaughter, New York Times bestselling author of Pretty Girls and After That Night!

One toxic family.

Eight suspicious guests.

Everyone is guilty.

But who is a killer?

For GBI investigator Will Trent and medical examiner Sara Linton, McAlpine Lodge seems like the ideal getaway to celebrate their honeymoon. Set on a gorgeous, off-the-grid mountaintop property, it’s the perfect place to unplug and reconnect. Until a bone-chilling scream cuts through the night.

A murderer in their midst

Mercy McAlpine, the manager of the Lodge, is dead. With a vicious storm raging and the one access road to the property washed out, the murderer must be someone on the mountain. But as Will and Sara investigate the McAlpine family and the other guests, they realize that everyone here is lying….Lying about their past. Lying to their family. Lying to themselves.

Who killed Mercy McAlpine?

It soon becomes clear that normal rules don’t apply at McAlpine Lodge, and Will and Sara are going to have to watch their step at every turn. Trapped on the resort, they must untangle a decades-old web of secrets to discover what happened to Mercy. And with the killer poised to strike again, the trip of a lifetime becomes a race against the clock…

Another great read .

I long awaited this book , I enjoy most of the authors books , the plot was great the twist was very unexpected ! I was guessing the entire time and was wrong . You do t need to read the entire series to enjoy this book . Well done Karin !

Well, shit.

Another winner! On my toes the whole time and then with a twist of a knife I'm baffled. Kathleen can't ever go anywhere when it comes to the next Will Trent novel. It just wouldn't be right.

Great Series

Another excellent read/listen added to the Will Trent series. Time well spent with all the books in this series.

Love me some Will Trent

This is one of the best Will Trent novels . Absolutely could not put down, a lot of twists and turns and maybe a roller coaster to boot.
I have read all of her books but my favorite are the Will Trent and Sarah Linton books. Can’t wait until the next one . Highly recommend if you like a good fast paced and unpredictable story line

So freaking good!

OMG! From start to finish this book is amazing. Waiting all year for a Karin Slaughter book is torture, but always worth it in the end! Her writing style, story telling ability along with excellent narration by Kathleen Early is sublime!
Will and Sarah’s story has been intriguing from the start and this book continues with the thrills, suspense and tension I’ve come to expect from Slaughter’s books. She never holds back and makes us confront harsh and painful realities in this world. If you’re looking for fluff you won’t find it in a Karin Slaughter book. What you will find is raw, heart wrenching stories mixed with a bit of romance and even some humor to help lighten up just a bit before she drags you back under and has you sitting at the edge of your seat, listening to the wee hours of the morning!
I have listened to every single one and after finishing this one way too quickly, I may have to go back and listen to her catalog. Brava!! 10 stars if I could.

Amazing, as always!

Karin Slaughter never disappoints! A great addition to the series and I cannot wait for the next!

Twisty and intense!

It’s Sarah and Will, so that’s always great. Slaughter takes us on a trip into Appalachia where Agatha Christie meets Demon Copperhead. It’s intense and gritty. It delivers twists and gut wrenching blows. I think it may bet her best yet!

Emotional roller coaster

I had it figured out so many times, and I was wrong so many times. Best Will Trent book yet!

soul crushing

Heart wrenching 💔 drama of child abuse and it's soul crushing legacy. Will and Sara are tested right off the bat with learning to make allowances for each other.

Just love Karin Slaughter!!!

Karin Slaughter is brilliant, left me guessing the whole way through, can’t wait for the next one.
