All I can say is that if you enjoy reading about young women being tortured
This book was suggested to me by Amazon, most likely because I had read Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn. After reading the description, I thought I'd give it a try. All I can say is that if you enjoy reading about young women being tortured, mutilated, and murdered, this may be the book for you. I personally was horrified by the graphic details Karin Slaughter felt were necessary and even more so by her publisher for not having the book edited drastically. The story line was weak and the book repulsed me. I wanted to make sure Paul got his comeuppance; otherwise I would have thrown it away. I've never read anything by Ms. Slaughter before and am certainly not going to waste my time with her books again. There is too much good literature available to bother with a book this disturbing.
