Pieces of Her: A Novel

"I suspect Karin Slaughter doesn’t think much about whether a book will be a hit and just tries to write the best book she can. And, frankly, that’s enough to make a hit. There’s a reason she’s considered one of the greatest crime writers in the world. “There’s a reason Karin Slaughter is considered one of the greatest crime writers in the world” The story here starts off with a bang when a mother and daughter are having lunch at a diner when gunshots ring out. To the daughter’s surprise, the mother snaps into action and heroically, and skilfully, puts an end to the carnage. And from there we learn that there’s more to Mom than anyone would have ever expected.
