A small Georgia town erupts in panic when a young college professor is found brutally mutilated in the local diner. But he’s got more than a sadistic serial killer on his hands, because the county’s only female detective, Lena Adams—the first victim’s sister—wants to serve her own justice.

Reviews"Shockingly good . . . beautifully and believably rendered. Slaughter may very well be the next Thomas Harris." -- Laura Lippman, author of The Sugar House "[A] page-turner...Slaughter's plot has more twists than a Slinky factory and the characters' relationships are sharply drawn." -- People starred review? "Wildly readable... A bulls-eye-deftly crafted, damnably suspenseful and, in the end, deadly serious...Slaughter's plotting is brilliant, her suspense relentless... BLINDSIGHTED hits the bull's eye...Slaughter is a serious as well as a skillful writer... The publisher is comparing Slaughter to Thomas Harris and, for once, the hype is justified." -- The Washington Post "This is storytelling at its finest, written in perfect pitch. A scary, sure-fire winner." -- John Westermann, author of Exit Wounds "The undertone of violence is pervasive, even at quiet moments, amplifying Slaughter's equation of intimacy with menace and placing her squarely in the ranks of Cornwell and Reichs." -- Publishers Weekly, Scary, shocking and perfectly suspenseful...

A scary, sure-fire winner." -- John Westermann, author of Exit Wounds "Pitch perfect. Karin Slaughter is a new force to be reckoned with." -- Steve Hamilton, author of A Cold Day in Paradise "Blindsighted is everything a book should be, and Karin Slaughter is a significant new voice in American crime fiction." -- Jane Haddam, author of True Believers "Karin Slaughter's debut is taut, mean, nasty and bloody well written." -- Stella Duffy, author of Beneath the Blonde "Blindsighted is an extraordinary debut.
