    Quando l’agente Michael Ormewood, del dipartimento di polizia di Atlanta, viene chiamato in un quartiere popolare di Grady Homes, si trova di fronte a uno degli omicidi più brutali cui abbia mai assistito nel corso della sua carriera: Aleesha Monroe giace in un lago di sangue, il corpo orribilmente mutilato. Ora dopo ora, appare evidente che l’assassinio della donna non è tuttavia destinato a rimanere isolato: poco dopo, il cadavere della vicina di casa di Michael, Cynthia Barrett, viene trovato nel cortile posteriore della sua villetta, e anche questo omicidio sembra avere parecchie somiglianze con altridue crimini verificatisi nello Stato. Viene chiamato ad affiancare Ormewood nell’indagine Will Trent, agente del Georgia Bureau of Investigation. Eppure, qualcosa non torna: tra i diversi casi ci sono delle incongruenze, dei dettagli che aprono la strada a ipotesi investigative diverse. Forse non si è in presenza di un unico serial killer, forse il mistero celato dietro la morte delle due donne è inestricabilmente legato a un passato che rifiuta di essere sepolto...La regina del thriller americano torna con un romanzo che tiene con il fiato sospeso, intrecciando le fila di una trama piena di colpi di scena e svolte sorprendenti che conducono il lettore, una pagina dopo l’altra, verso un finale sconvolgente.

  2. Tre giorni per morire

    Tre giorni per morire segna il grande ritorno di Karin Slaughter, la regina del thriller americano, e della serie best seller inaugurata con L’ombra della verità. Una finestra in frantumi. Un’impronta di sangue. Ed è solo l’inizio... Un atroce crimine ha colpito al cuore la periferia più ricca di Atlanta. Rientrando nella sua villetta nel verde di Ansley Park, Abigail Campano trova ad accoglierla vetri rotti, tracce di sangue e il corpo martoriato di una ragazza. Inizialmente, pensa che quelle membra straziate siano della figlia Emma: disperata, la donna si avventa su quello che ritiene essere l’aggressore. Poi, lentamente, la verità inizia a farsi strada: non è di Emma quel corpo riverso sul pavimento; non è il suo assassino quel ragazzo che Abigail ha appena ucciso, a mani nude. Le indagini vengono affidate alla polizia di Atlanta, ma torbidi giochi di potere e un errore di valutazione da parte delle autorità rendono inevitabile l’intervento di Will Trent, agente speciale del Georgia Bureau of Investigation. Perché c’è qualcosa in quei vetri rotti, in quelle tracce di sangue, nello sguardo spento di Abigail che solo Will Trent saprà leggere: ma dovrà fare in fretta, costretto a una corsa contro il tempo per evitare che altre vite vengano spezzate in nome di un segreto che nessuno sembra voler svelare.
