THE KEPT WOMAN PB

The latest novel in the Will Trent series from No. 1 bestselling author, Karin Slaughter. A body is discovered in an empty Atlanta warehouse. Its the body of an ex-cop, and from the moment Special Agent Will Trent walks in he knows this could be the most devastating case of his career. Bloody footprints leading away from the scene reveal that another victim - a woman - has left the scene and vanished into thin air. And, worst of all, the warehouse belongs to the citys biggest, most politically-connected, most high-profile athlete - a local hero protected by the worlds most expensive lawyers. A local hero Will has spent the last six months investigating on a brutal rape charge. But for Will - and also for Dr Sara Linton, the GBIs newest medical examiner - the case is about to get even worse. Because an unexpected discovery at the scene reveals a personal link to Wills troubled past. The consequences will wreak havoc on his life and the lives of those he loves, those he works with, and those he pursues. But Saras scene-of-the-crime diagnosis is that they only have a few hours to find the missing woman before she bleeds out . . .
