Kisscut

One Terrifying Night Changes Everything

In Kisscut, the second installment of Karin Slaughter’s gripping Grant County series, a harrowing incident at a local skating rink leaves pediatrician and coroner Sara Linton shaken—and a young girl dead. What initially appears to be a tragic shooting soon reveals itself to be part of a far darker and more disturbing mystery.

A Town Hiding Unthinkable Secrets

As Sara teams up once again with her ex-husband, police chief Jeffrey Tolliver, and detective Lena Adams—still reeling from her own trauma—they uncover a web of abuse, manipulation, and evil lurking beneath the surface of their seemingly quiet Georgia town. With each revelation, the lines between victim and perpetrator begin to blur, and the case grows more personal—and more dangerous—by the hour.

Relentless, Haunting, and Unforgettable

Kisscut is a chilling exploration of the damage inflicted by silence and the courage it takes to face the truth. Karin Slaughter delivers a masterclass in psychological suspense, combining raw emotion with forensic precision. It's a novel that lingers long after the final page—dark, powerful, and utterly unflinching.
