Publisher's Summary

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Karin Slaughter, author of the bestselling Will Trent novels, is widely acclaimed as “one of the best crime novelists in America” (The Washington Post). Now she delivers her first stand-alone novel: an epic story of a city in the midst of seismic upheaval, a serial killer targeting cops, and a divided police force tasked with bringing a madman to justice.

Atlanta, 1974. It’s Kate Murphy’s first day on the job, and the Atlanta Police Department is seething after the murder of an officer. Before the day has barely begun, she already suspects she’s not cut out to be a cop. Her male uniform is too big, she can’t handle a gun, and she’s rapidly learning that the APD is hardly a place that welcomes women. Worse still, in the ensuing manhunt, she’ll be partnered with Maggie Lawson, a cop with her own ax to grind (and a brother and uncle already on the force)—a strategy meant to isolate Kate and Maggie from the action. But the move will backfire, putting them right at the heart of it.

Cop Town is an incredibly atmospheric nail-biter from the author the Huffington Post called an “exemplary storyteller” and “one of the great talents of the twenty-first century.”

Good Read!

I had never ready anything by Karin Slaughter, this was my first of her books. I really enjoyed the storyline and the characters. I have downloaded several more to listen to going forward.

H!!!!

Fantastic book, but why the "h" before the "w"..so annoying!!
the word wheel is pronounced "weel" not "hweel"..whisper is pronounced "wisper" not "hwisper"
In all of similar words the h is silent!, and definetily not given emphasis before the W!! ...hwhere did this come from?

The reader made this worthwhile....

I am a big Karin Slaughter fan but this was just terrible. The reader however brought the characters to life and made the dialogue fun :) Bring back the grant County series (and style of the grant County series).

Could not put it down

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I had all the emotions, which let me know the writing was amazing. I was so angry but laughed so hard at the sentence "her tits were so small they were like a second pair of eyes" HA!
