NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - Features a new introduction on the
origins of the Will Trent novels and Undone's place in the series
In the trauma center of Atlanta's busiest hospital, Sara Linton treats
the city's poor, wounded, and unlucky--and finds refuge from the tragedy
that rocked her life in rural Grant County. Then, in one instant, Sara
is thrust into a frantic police investigation, coming face-to-face with
a tall driven detective and his quiet female partner.... In Undone,
three unforgettable characters from Karin Slaughter's New York Times
bestselling novels Faithless and Fractured collide for the first
time, entering an electrifying race against the clock--and a duel with
unspeakable human evil.
In the backwoods of suburban Atlanta, where Sara's patient was found,
local police have set up their investigation. But Georgia Bureau of
Investigation detective Will Trent doesn't wait for the go-ahead from
his boss--he plunges through police lines, through the brooding woods,
and single-handedly exposes a hidden house of horror buried beneath the
earth. Then he finds another victim....
Wresting the case away from the local police chief, Will and his
partner, Faith Mitchell--a woman keeping explosive secrets of her
own--are called into a related investigation. Another woman--a smart,
upscale, independent young mother--has been snatched. For the two cops
out on the hunt, for the doctor trying to bring her patient back to
life, the truth hits like a hammer: the killer's torture chamber has
been found, but the killer is still at work.
In her latest suspense masterpiece, Karin Slaughter weaves together the
moving, powerful human stories of characters as real as they are complex
and unforgettable. At the same time she has crafted a work of dazzling
storytelling and spine-tingling mystery--as three people, each with
their own wounds and their own secrets, are all that stands between a
madman and his next crime.
