Karin Slaughter's books are so, so dark and so, so easy to devour. Her stories are complex and layered while also being utterly page-turning. Stay up all night reading, in more ways than one.

There were quite a few mistakes in the text (like mix up of names) which may be due to bad editing but the translation definitely lacked as well. Disregarding this, I found this read to be disturbing and quite violent but very gripping and intens. The characters aren't very likeable but it wasn't too annoying. The end was suprising enough. This was my first Karin Slaughter; looking forward to the next one.
