Girl, Forgotten (Andrea Oliver, #2)

4.5 stars
Karin Slaughter has wowed me yet again! I was not the biggest fan of Pieces of Her, it was my least favorite of her books, but I loved where she took Andrea in this book. The central mystery is "Who killed Emily"?
It was Prom Night in 1982. Emily has a secret. A secret which will result in her death. Forty years later, Andrea Oliver, newly qualified as a US Marshal, is sent to Longbill Beach to investigate death threats being made against a judge. But Andrea has been haunted by Emily's death. There were no convictions and one of the suspects hits close to home.
Karin Slaughter writes grisly and brutal books, but this one was on the tamer side for her which will make this book more appealing to most readers. With all of her books, this was well written and perfectly plotted. The characters were an interesting bunch and it was hard to find any to like. Slaughter pulled no punches as the plot unfolded proving she is still on the top of her game!
I enjoyed the mystery and how things unfolded. I had a hard time putting this one down and can't wait to read this next book in the series.
