The fifth Grant County novel, from the #1 bestselling author.
A walk in the woods takes a sinister turn for police chief Jeffrey Tolliver and medical examiner Sara Linton when they stumble across the body of a young girl. Incarcerated in the ground, all the initial evidence indicates that she has, quite literally, been scared to death.
But as Sara embarks on the autopsy, something even more horrifying comes to light. Something which shocks even Sara. Detective Lena Adams, talented but increasingly troubled, is called in from vacation to help with the investigation - and the trail soon leads to the neighbouring county, an isolated community, and a terrible secret ...

Slaughter has the money-shot gore but her most visceral writing is when she is simply ratcheting up the suspense.The slow build up of one scene featuring Tolliver, a suspect and two cups of hot coffee is brilliant, especially when it takes off in an unexpected direction. Great cliffhanger ending too
