Blindsighted
I am thankful that I did not read this, Slaughter’s first book, first. I probably would never have read another. Fortunately, her later ones are better. And there are redeeming aspects of this one. She always does a superb job of developing characteres, to the point that you feel you personally know them. In this case, that includes …
Makes me want to go out and buy another by this author!
Blindsighted is an excellent, thrilling mystery. Slaughter has immense respect for detail in plot, character and setting, and is adept at unexpected plot twists. The only reason I gave this four stars instead of five is that it was fairly obvious who the killer was.
This is the first book in Karin’s Grant County series. If you’ve never read the Grant County series of books, I highly recommend reading this one. You’ll be hooked on Sara and Jeffrey’s story! Happy reading.

When a you g professor turns up dead she uncovers what appears to be a sadistic killing. When another girl turns up on top of Sara’s car, it looks like Jeffery the sheriff and Sara’s ex husband have a serial …
Karen Slaughter is always great.
A fast an easy read with great characters and surprising twists set in the south.
Now I need to read the rest of the series. Great characters and interesting dynamics.
Rape scenes are violent and disturbing but the ones in this book are way beyond awful. Gratuitous gore and unnecessary oceans of blood.
This novel is everything a crime thriller should be. I was shocked, obsessed, and addictive yet horrified by each new twist. Love the omniscient narration. Keeps characters genuine.
