This NWS Podcast episode celebrates the birthday week of critically-acclaimed master of suspense Karin Slaughter.
Slaughter’s first novel Blindsighted became an international success, was published in almost 30 languages, and made the Crime Writers’ Association’s Dagger Award shortlist for “Best Thriller Debut” of 2001. She is also the author of the Will Trent series that takes place in Atlanta and features GBI special agent Will Trent, his partner Faith Mitchell, and Angie Polaski.
In this episode from 2014, Slaughter sits down with author and creative writing instructor Elizabeth Kane Buzzelli to discuss Slaughter's newest book: Cop Town.
In this book, two women from different backgrounds who try to wear the badge and carry the gun for Atlanta’s macho police department as the city faces a seismic upheaval. It’s 1974, and a brutal killing and furious manhunt have rocked the divided police force.
