New York Times bestselling author Karin Slaughter will visit Fort Knox’s Barr Memorial Library at noon Aug. 29 as part of the Authors at Your Library program to discuss and sign Pieces of Her, her newest stand-alone novel.
In Pieces of Her, Andrea Cooper has spent her entire life in the beachside town of Gullaway Island with her mother Laura. A routine trip to the mall explodes into violence and within a day, Laura is shot and hospitalized. Suddenly Andrea is confronted with the 30-year-old secret her mother has been hiding: she was once someone else. Now Laura’s history has caught up with her. Andrea must follow the clues to discover her mother’s past before there is no future for either of them.
Karin Slaughter’s books have been published in 37 languages. They have sold over 35 million copies. She is known for the Will Trent series and the Grant County series. Her first stand-alone novel, Cop Town, was nominated for a 2014 Edgar Award.
