-----------

Sara Linton had moved to Atlanta hoping to leave her past behind her.

But when a severely wounded young woman is brought in to the emergency room, she finds herself drawn back into a world of violence and terror.

When Special Agent Will Trent visits the scene of the incident, he stumbles on a torture chamber buried beneath the earth.

It's clear that this woman is not the only victim of a sick, sadistic killer.

Wrestling the case away from the local police chief, Will and his partner Faith Mitchell soon find themselves at the centre of a grisly murder hunt.

Haunted by their own wounds and secrets, do Will and Faith have what it takes to stand between a madman and his next crime?

Praise for Genesis

Without doubt an accomplished, compelling and complex tale, with page-turning power aplenty

Daily Express

Slaughter's plotting is relentless, piling on surprises and twists ... A good read that should come with a psychological health warning

Criminally spectacular

OK!

It's beautifully paced, appropriately grisly, and terrifyingly plausible. Who says there's anything peaceful and quiet about small-town America

Brilliantly chilling

Confirms her at the summit of the school of writers specialising in forensic medicine and terror

A great read ... crime fiction at its finest

Michael Connelly

A superior, deeply satisfying thriller
