Search - Kisscut

THIS BOOK WAS AWESOME!!! I really enjoy this author. The plot was great and it had many twist and turns . If you like a book that will keep you guessing until the end, here is the book for you.(Warning: This book does deal with sexual abuse of children and may not be for every reader.)

Loved the book. This is the first I've read of Karin Slaughter, and now I'm going to have to find her other books!

It is difficult to say I enjoyed a book that involves child abuse and pornography, but in the context of this book I did enjoy it. Slaughter’s book intertwines both the ‘A’ storyline, which in this case is the death of a young girl who has been horribly abused and mutilated, and the ‘B’ storyline, which involves the relationship of Sara Linton and Jeffrey Tolliver who are divorced and trying to make sense of their relationship. There is also another story regarding Detective Lena Adams and her ongoing recovery from events that were introduced in book one of this series, Blindsighted. I found the development of these characters and their relationships really well written and convincing. The storyline involving the child abuse is not for the faint of heart. It is dark, grisly, graphic and shocking. At times it was difficult to read but I had to learn how the story turned out. In real life fashion not everything is tied up in a neat and happy ever after package. I have the next book in the series, A Faint Cold Fear, but I think I will need a little break before going on with the series.

I just got started reading this series, and this is the second one I've read. I'm hooked! The storyline was quite graphic and dealt with the sexual abuse of children, so beware, but it is a mesmerizing police thriller.

A chilling and powerful tale of small town evil.
This book will keep you reading.

Another graphic tale of violence in fictional Grant County, Georgia. Sara, Jeffrey and Lena continue as the main characters, and I think the reader would prefer to have read the previous novel in the series, Blindsighted, before tackling this one. Slaughter does a great job of making the reader empathize with her characters, and her plot, though gruesome, is compelling.

Second book I read in this series. Loved it as much as the first. She has become one of my favorite authors. I really feel like I know the characters. This is a real page turner. I have now ordered every book in this series.

This author is becoming one of my favorite. Very suspensfull and with great charector development.

Love it! Cant wait to read the next one!

Really good!

Second book in the Dr. Sara Linton series.
Karin Slaughter is a bold thriller writer that does not disappoint with Kisscut.This story delves into child abuse and kiddie porn. How can this go on for so long in a small Georgia town? This extremely well organized child pornography ring has escaped the FBI for years. Will the ringleaders be caught this time?

Sara Linton, pediatrician and medical examiner in Heartsdale, Georgia, knows too well the secrets that hide behind closed doors. Saturday night at the skating rink is interrupted by death. Autopsy on the dead girl reveals abuse and mutilation. Sara can't believe that a patient of hers could suffer like this and she not know it. Police chief Jeffrey Tolliver and dectetive Lena Adams, still traumatized by her attack by a maniac, are frustrated when families and friends of the victims won't talk.

Good book. Four stars.

If you can get past the subject matters (pedophilia and incest) which are gross, this is a suspenseful thriller. It will be a better read if you read Blindsighted, because the story lines from the previous book continue in this one.

Chilling, tense crime fiction with an appealing central character, Sara Linton, a pediatrician and medical examiner who appears in several of Karin Slaughter's books.

Sara Linton, pediatrician and medical examiner in Heartsdale, GA knows too well the horrors that can hide behind closed doors in a small community. A Sat. night argument between teenagers leads to death and a subsequent autopsy reveals evidence of ritualistic mutilation and abuse.

EXCELLENT book!!! Comes from a non-smoking home.

A chilling and powerful story!

I think this series is kind of dark, but the characteres are enjoyable.

Chilling and powerful tale of small-town evil... Excellent reading!

Most invole I have been in a book for months. Ordered all of her books.

Very dark suspense. Great characters!
