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.”

It's really hard not to like Karin Slaughter, although I'll admit I haven't tried that hard. Her books are just so tight and easy to listen to and Cop Town didn't disappoint.

As an Atlanta resident, it's so interesting to hear the clearly well researched history of the city. The Atlanta I moved back to 8 years ago bears little resemblance to the 1974 Atlanta of this book, but it's a good reminder that a mere 40 years can change so many things. It helps us all remember that fighting the good fight of racism, sexism and homophobia can yield results not in some distant future, but in our own lifetimes.

Like the early story of Amanda Wagner, this book follows the path of a young APD officer as she navigates 1974 Atlanta and the cataclysmic changes that were happening in the city at that time - changes that paved the way for the city I now live in.

If you've never read Karin Slaughter before, this book will send you back to her archive to listen to more. If you've heard all the rest, then you won't be disappointed.

One note on the narrator: While she's perfectly good with characterization albeit a little weak on southern (which I've simply come to expect in media), I'm really surprised that no one has ever bothered to correct her pronunciation of a few of the street names in Atlanta. I've noticed it in every book she's narrated for this author and it always takes me out of the book for a moment. Ponce de Leon has a correct pronunciation (the Spanish way), but only about 10 people out of Atlanta's 6 million use it (and they're either newbies or solely Spanish speakers). In Atlanta, the street is pronounced Ponce (one syllable) de Leon (like the man's name). And Cheshire Bridge Rd. is pronounced Che - sher with no long "i."

She does it again!

Cop Town is a book that causes you to feel a deep connection to its characters and their relationships with one another. Taking place in 1974, the book deals with topics such as sexism, racism, etc. As a southerner, Karin’s depiction of a police department and the power trip that many officers have is very realistic. Even in 2020.

It's 2016 now and a lot has changed for the better. Hearing this story brought back the memories of a different era and not the warm fuzzy ones. Society has come a long way baby but still has a long way to go. This story is well written, well read, and completely kept me on the edge of my seat. Never saw the end coming until the end. Slaughter and Early did great work👍👍👍👍👍

Cop Town - What a Great Read

This is the rare book that held my interest even when I wasn't listening to it. I kept trying to figure out who did it. However it was a big disappointment, when i was expecting more clues to have the bad guy just kind of show up and have the final scene. What did I miss? How did I miss it? The bad guy just walked in out of the blue, guess I was expecting more intrigue. Oh well it was a pretty good book non the less.

Did I miss something?

Had a decent story. Not what I had expected but okay. Doesn't really make me want to be a cop in the south.

Well developed characters, good story that captures the era in Atlanta though occasionally slow when the focus was on the personal story of the characters. Excellent narration.,

Good story though occasionally slow

If you’re looking for an exciting mystery pick up one of Karen slaughter’s books she’s dark I don’t know where she gets these characters she probably needs psychotherapy and I probably need it after reading her stories but I keep coming back for more. Keep the books coming!

I have found a new author that I can’t stop reading.
