Who killed Mercy McAlpine? The next thrilling suspense featuring Will Trent and Sara Linton from Karin Slaughter, no.1 bestselling author of Pieces of Her and After That Night
Everyone here is a liar, but only one of us is a killer...
Welcome to the McAlpine Lodge: a remote mountain getaway, it's the height of escapist luxury living.
Except that everyone here is lying. Lying about their past. Lying to their family. Lying to themselves.
Then one night, Mercy McAlpine - until now the good daughter - threatens to expose everybody's secrets. Just hours later, Mercy is dead.
In an area this remote, it's easy to get away with murder. But Will Trent and Sara Linton - investigator and medical examiner for the GBI - are here on their honeymoon.
And now, with the killer poised to strike again, the holiday of a lifetime becomes a race against the clock ...

"Intense, gripping, gutsy, multilayered, and highly emotional...Karin Slaughter at her best. Highly recommended to fans of the series and all readers who enjoy a fast-paced, dark suspense thriller."

"It's funny, shocking, moving, and filled with the sort of believable, grounded but still surprising twists that make Slaughter a master of the genre."
-- "Parade"
"Kathleen Early is almost too good at realistically voicing the abusive and sadistic characters who populate the latest Will Trent thriller. Listeners will feel their skin crawl...This is a binge-worthy listen."
