The fifth book in Karin Slaughter's #1 bestselling GRANT COUNTY series.

Deep in the Georgia woods, Dr Sara Linton and Police Chief Jeffrey Tolliver stumble across the body of a young girl. Initial evidence suggests that she was buried alive and, quite literally, scared to death.

Troubled by their own turbulent past, Sara and Jeffrey must work together to identify the killer and prevent another death.

The trail will soon lead to the neighbouring county, an isolated community, and a terrible secret...

Reviews

Brutal and chilling

—— Daily Mirror

Slaughter has the money-shot gore but her most visceral writing is when she is simply ratcheting up the suspense ... Great cliffhanger ending too

—— Observer

Faithless confirms her at the summit of the school of writers specialising in forensic medicine and terror ... Slaughter's characters talk in believable dialogue. She's excellent at portraying the undertones and claustrophobia of communities where everyone knows everyone else's business, and even better at creating an atmosphere of lurking evil

—— The Times

Don't read this alone. Don't read this after dark. But do read it

—— Mirror

Brilliantly chilling

—— heat

A great read - crime fiction at its finest

—— Michael Connelly

Slaughter deftly turns all assumptions on their head ... Her ability to make you buy into one reality, then another, means that the suprises - and the violent scenes - keep coming

—— Time Out

No plodding, predictable plot lines here. A compelling exciting read

—— Sunday Express

A strong and uncompromising thriller

—— Good Book Guide

Highly sophisticated and exquisitely written

—— Daily Mirror

Riveting

—— Vanity Fair

This morbidly funny page-turner will have you guessing until the end

—— Holly Fraser , She Magazine

Accomplished thriller... Turn of Mind is an incisive, humane exploration of how we can rail against our need for close relationships with others, feeling that they undermine our independence, even as we keep coming back for more

—— Josie Barnard , Times Literary Supplement

Turn of Mind is a difficult read emotionally, but more than justifies the reader's investment with its sublime writing and pitch-perfect plotting. As a drama it is scintillating, but transcends the boundaries of a mere thriller with a stunning exploration of a devastating illness. This is a book of tremendous value

—— Bookgeeks.co.uk

This is a beautifully-written book with a dark mystery at its heart

—— Bookbag

Turn of Mind is an incredibly powerful novel, handled with an infinite amount of care and sensitivity that entertains and educates from beginning to end

—— Milosrambles.com

It sounds like an impossible task: to write a murder mystery from the perspective of a suspect with Alzheimer's. And yet Alice LaPlante pulls it off and with some flair... Unforgettable

—— Alison Flood , Observer

The twists and turns of mind this novel charts are haunting and original

—— New York Times Book Review

Gripping...compelling

—— Stephen Amidon , Washington Post
