About the Broken

Newly repackaged with an electrifying series look and in premium mass market trim, Karin Slaughter's New York Times bestselling thriller stars GBI special agent Will Trent and Dr. Sara Linton investigating a death staged to look like suicide, and a cover-up that could let a killer get away with murder.
New York Times bestseller Karin Slaughter set some of her most loved thrillers in Grant County. In Broken, Sara Linton returns to see her family in Grant, the place where she suffered her greatest loss. Her past life as the town's medical examiner won't let her go, however, as she is asked to consult with a young prisoner accused of murder. The alleged crimes wrench at Sara, but the apparent police cover-up sends her to the phone, bringing in Will Trent from the Georgia Bureau of Investigation. In a case that takes countless breathtaking turns, Slaughter, "at the summit of the school of writers specializing in forensic medicine and terror," (The Times [London]) mines to the core of her characters to find a story that is startlingly sinister, and irrepressibly human.
