Following the #1 NYT release of We Are All Guilty Here, comes the next thrilling mystery in the new North Falls series from Karin Slaughter, and narrated once again by Kathleen Early…
Welcome to North Falls. A small town with big secrets.
1601 Iris Drive looks like any other house on the quiet, residential street. But rumors are rampant about the Vickery family, and what goes on behind closed doors.
When gunshots ring out, Sheriff Emmy Clifton and her sister, ex-federal agent Jude Archer, discover a devastating crime scene. Allison Vickery has been murdered in her own kitchen, and her teenage daughter is bleeding upstairs, left for dead.
Everyone thinks they know what happened. But secrets are buried everywhere in this small town.
And it’s up to Emmy Clifton to uncover the truth…
APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
An apparently open-and-shut murder case unlocks a tight-knit community’s hidden sins in this masterful thriller. After newly appointed sheriff Emmy Clifton finds her former colleague Allison Vickery shot dead and Allison’s teenage daughter critically wounded, the small town of North Falls expects a simple domestic case. But with the clues just a little too neat, Emmy—along with her ex-FBI sister—delves into the community’s troubled past, uncovering secrets that threaten them all. Thriller queen Karin Slaughter intimately understands the push and pull of family and criminal investigations. In her expert hands, the emotionally vulnerable Emmy wrestles with her own complicated feelings as she painstakingly unravels the puzzling circumstances leading to Allison’s death, dismantling false leads and local gossip along the way. Even as Emmy’s meticulous detective work is complicated by family pressures, Slaughter takes us ever deeper into this dangerous case and left us gasping at its final stirring twists.
