What They're Saying
Critics Review
“A fast-paced thriller for those not faint of heart.”–Library Journal
“An engrossing work, with a well-drawn cast of characters and a nicely tuned plot”–Irish Times
“An impressive new landmark on the thriller map.”–Val McDermid
“Combines the best elements of a noir thriller and the Southern Gothic tradition complete with a brooding atmosphere.”–Fort Lauderdale Sun-Sentinel
“Engrossing… [with] meticulous characterizations.”–People
“Few young writers show more promise than the thirty-year-old Slaughter. She writes…with skill, anger, sensitivity, and compassion.”–Atlanta Journal-Constitution
“Hard to imagine that such a quiet shy girl as Slaughter harbors so fiendish a heart. In Kisscut, Georgia pediatrician Sara Linton and her ex, police chief Jeffrey Tolliver, are caught up in an evil web along with Detective Lena Adams. It begins with a young girl who commits suicide by forcing Jeffrey to shoot her down. Horrified, he’s desperate to determine why. Sara, not just the dead Jenny’s doctor but also the town’s coroner, does the autopsy and makes a horrible discovery: Jenny had been rudely castrated. Lena, wrestling with her own dark demons, joins in an investigation worthy of Andrew Vachs. Man, Kisscut is a killer book, savage but exciting, a strong follow-up to Slaughter’s debut in Blindsighted.”–Barbara Peters, The Poisoned Pen Bookstore
“Slaughter spares no details…engrossing.”–The Mirror (London)
“This is one of those rare books that keeps delivering surprises right up to the very last page.”–San Francisco Chronicle
