COP TOWN by Karin Slaughter - SIGNED FIRST EDITION UK BOOKSee all titles by Karin Slaughter.
Karin Slaughter, author of the New York Times bestselling Will Trent novels, is widely acclaimed as “one of the best crime novelists in America” (The Washington Post).
Now she delivers her first stand-alone novel: an epic story of a city
in the midst of seismic upheaval, a serial killer targeting cops, and a
divided police force tasked with bringing a madman to justice.
Atlanta, 1974: As a brutal murder and a furious manhunt rock the city’s
police department, Kate Murphy wonders if her first day on the job will
also be her last. She’s determined to defy her privileged background by
making her own way—wearing a badge and carrying a gun. But for a
beautiful young woman, life will be anything but easy in the macho world
of the Atlanta PD, where even the female cops have little mercy for
rookies. It’s also the worst day possible to start given that a beloved
cop has been gunned down, his brothers in blue are out for blood, and
the city is on the edge of war.
Kate isn’t the only woman on the force who’s feeling the heat. Maggie
Lawson followed her uncle and brother into the ranks to prove her worth
in their cynical eyes. When she and Kate, her new partner, are sidelined
in the citywide search for a cop killer, their fury, pain, and pride
finally reach the boiling point. With a killer poised to strike again,
they will pursue their own line of investigation, risking everything as
they venture into the city’s darkest heart.
Relentlessly paced, acutely observed, wickedly funny, and often heartbreaking, Cop Town
is Karin Slaughter’s most powerful novel yet—a tour de force of
storytelling from our foremost master of character, atmosphere, and
suspense.
