Karin Slaughter

One of mystery’s fastest rising stars and a #1 international bestseller, Karin Slaughter’s gritty, graphic Southern-set mysteries have earned her legions of fans. The Georgia native’s Grant County novels featuring medical examiner Sara Linton, and mysteries featuring Atlanta Detective Will Trent have established her reputation as a writer of thrillers that pull no punches, frequently breaking the “rules” of the genre and ever keeping her readers off balance.

Now she throws another twist at fans with her newest work, the dark—but humorous!—original novella Martin Misunderstood. Exclusively available through BBC Audiobooks America, this twisted Southern gothic fairy tale revolves around the woefully pathetic existence of Martin, an accountant for a toilet supply company who lives with his mother and laments his humdrum life. Then a horrifying downward spiral of events finds Martin the main suspect in the murder of his coworkers. Suddenly, Martin’s life has gotten a whole lot more interesting…

Narrated by Slaughter’s fellow Georgian, TV and film actor Wayne Knight (best recognized from his recurring role on TV’s Seinfeld as Jerry’s nemesis Newman).
