Indelible: A Grant County Thriller Mass market paperbound - 2015

From the publisher

The fourth book in the Grant County series from Karin Slaughter, the New York Times bestselling author of Pieces of Her.

"[A] page-turner . . . Slaughter's plot has more twists than a Slinky factory and the characters' relationships are sharply drawn."--People, starred review

"Scary, shocking and perfectly suspenseful."--BookPage

An officer is shot point blank in the police station lobby and sherrif Jeffrey Tolliver is wounded, setting off a terrifying hostage situation with medical examiner Sara Linton at the center. It's up to Lena Adams and Frank Going back and forth between present and past,

The narrative takes place in two time frames: present and ten years prior to the shooting. The "present" narration evolves over one hour; the "past" takes place over the course of a week. Lena will primarily get the present narration, working outside the station with Frank trying to figure out who the shooter is and how to resolve the hostage situation. Inside the station, Jeffrey has not been fatally wounded, but Sara knows he could easily die if the bleeding is not stopped. He drifts in and out of consciousness and through Sara and Jeffrey we get the past, and the case that leads up to the present day shooting.
