NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
"It's Slaughter's prodigious gifts of characterization that make her stand out among thriller writers." -- Washington Post
From the New York Times bestselling author of Pieces of Her, comes an electrifying thriller featuring newly minted US Marshal Andrea Oliver as she investigates a cold case with links to her father's past.
A small town hides a big secret...
Who killed Emily Vaughn?
A girl with a secret...
Longbill Beach, 1982. Emily Vaughn gets ready for the prom. For an athlete, who is smart, pretty and well-liked, this night should be the highlight of her high school career. But Emily has a secret. And by the end of the evening, that secret will be silenced forever.
An unsolved murder...
Forty years later, Emily's murder remains a mystery. Her tight-knit group of friends closed ranks; her respected, wealthy family retreated inwards; the small town moved on from her grisly attack. But all that's about to change.
One final chance to uncover a killer...
US Marshal Andrea Oliver arrives in Longbill Beach on her first assignment: to protect a judge receiving death threats. But, in reality, Andrea is there to find justice for Emily. The killer is still out there--and Andrea must discover the truth before she gets silenced, too...
Customer Reviews
Rated 5 starsThis is my first Karin Slaughter book
Girl, forgotten is heartbreaking, devastating, and absolutely well-written. I was sucked into every page, cried so much, and couldn’t put it down. This book definitely stuck with me. I hope the author writes a sequel to this. I’m definitely going to check out more of her books.

The Shining Girls Mentions in Our Blog
It's a fruitful time for book-to-screen adaptations. Below, we've selected a handful of the best literary movies and TV shows that are streaming now. Plus a bumper crop of titles that are coming soon. We're excited to watch! (But only after we read the book, of course.)
It may seem that the horror genre is overrun with male writers, but women have long been dark horses in the field, with one of the frontrunners being a certain Ms. Jackson (and we're not talking about Janet). As we move into the season of spooky stories, we present the consummate Shirley Jackson, plus six more of our favorite horror authors (who also happen to be female).
