This book is now released. Run and get it!! Cop Town is set in Atlanta, Georgia during the 1970's. Admittedly the south has suffered for our history and this book doesn't portray the people living in the south in a great light. Don't let that stop you though. I lived and live in Georgia and this book blew me away.Atlanta GA 1970 Peachtree street. 1970's Then Atlanta's Police Dept in the 70's. Notice something there? No women. The Police department didn't really think women belonged on the

Im giving it up for Slaughters Cop Town. She got her hook in early and kept me tethered to that line throughout. Dawn broke over Peachtree Street. The sun razored open the downtown corridor, slicing past the construction cranes waiting to dip into the earth and pull up skyscrapers, hotels, convention centers. Frost spiderwebbed across the parks. Fog drifted through the streets. Trees slowly straightened their spines. The wet, ripe meat of the city lurched toward the November light. The only

Whenever I read a Karin Slaughter book I finish it and think I really should read more of her work. I always seem to enjoy her books and yet I still keep reading other authors work, well this is going to change. In my defence there are so many good authors and books out there and such little time to fit them all in.This stand alone novel is set in Atlanta, 1974 and new recruit Kate Murphy is thrown into a brutal murder and a furious manhunt that is rocking the city.

I'm so used to YA, with their dazzling covers of trickery, looking all beautiful on the outside, but oftentimes being so empty inside. Then I came across this. With it's unassuming cover, all quiet, contemplative, calculating, almost bland

Unputdownable!I can easily see why Karin Slaughter is one of my very favorite authors. "Cop Town" is her first stand-alone novel that I genuinely hope she will develop into a series.Set in the 70's "Cop Town" is an epic story of a city in the midst of tumultuous turmoil, a serial cop killer, and a divided police force assigned with capturing this madman.How can I do justice to this superbly written novel except to say it is fascinating, deeply moving, blatantly realistic and written by one of

Atlanta, Georgia in 1974 was full of racial prejudice, bigotry, hatred and the belief that women should be in the home, not working toward a career and this was just in the Atlanta Police Department. Maggie Lawson had been a raw recruit once on the job now for twelve months, she was still in the shadow of her uncle and brother. Terry had a cruel streak and did his best to lower Maggies dwindling confidence with verbal abuse and beatings. Her brother Jimmy was growing up the same way, though
