An instant #1 New York Times bestseller!

The first thrilling mystery in the new North Falls series from Karin Slaughter, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Pretty Girls and the Will Trent Series.

Welcome to North Falls—a small town where everyone knows everyone. Or so they think.

Until the night of the fireworks. When two teenage girls vanish, and the town ignites.

For Officer Emmy Clifton, it’s personal. She turned away when her best friend's daughter needed help—and now she must bring her home.

But as Emmy combs through the puzzle the girls left behind, she realizes she never really knew them. Nobody did.

Every teenage girl has secrets. But who would kill for them? And what else is the town hiding?

"Karin Slaughter's new series starts with a book that is a knock-out punch...My God. Sign me up for more." Dervla McTiernan, #1 internationally bestselling author of What Happened to Nina?

Editorial Review

Small town, big secrets
Karin Slaughter is one of those authors I always turn to when I want a story that completely pulls me in. We Are All Guilty Here focuses on a small Southern town in the United States where a violent crime sends shockwaves through a community full of secrets. I’m intrigued that this isn’t just a whodunit, but more of a “what did we all do?” I’ve got a feeling it will leave us questioning everything—and talking about it long after. Expect a slow-burn suspense that packs a serious emotional punch. If you loved Pieces of Her or Pretty Girls, this one should already be in your wish list. —Dawn G., Audible Editor

We Are All Guilty Here is Book 1 in Karin Slaughter's newest series, North Falls. Slaughter is the current master of the suspense thriller and she is at her very best with this one.

The story is set in small southwest Georgia town of North Falls. The mystery is the deaths of two fifteen year old girls who were close friends. The main characters are two sisters, both in law enforcement, who had not seen or heard from each other for 40 years when both were teens. One of the sisters, Emmy Clifton, is the protagonist. More broadly it is the story of a the Clifton law enforcement family. The story is complex and there is a major plot twist near the end. If you liked Karin Slaughter's Will Trent and Grant County series you will love this novel.

As usual narrator Kathleen Early does a superb job.

Marvelous suspense novel
