A list of the top ten mystery hardcover bestsellers for the week ending August 03, 2007 has been posted on the Hidden Staircase Mystery Books website.
Only one new mystery title appears on the bestseller list this week: Beyond Reach, the 6th mystery in the Grant County (Georgia) series by Karin Slaughter. Sara Linton—resident medical examiner/pediatrician in Grant County—has plenty of hardship to deal with, including defending herself in a heartbreaking malpractice suit. So when her husband, Police chief Jeffery Tolliver, learns that his friend and coworker detective Lena Adams has been arrested for murder and needs Sara’s help, she is not sure she can handle the pressure of it all. But soon Sara an Jeffery are sitting through evidence, peeling back the layers of a mystery that grows darker by the day—until an intricate web of betrayal and vengeance begins to unravel. And suddenly the lives of Sara, Lena, and Jeffery are hanging by the slenderest of threads. Publishers Weekly gives Beyond Reach a starred review, calling it "bone-chilling" and adds, "Expertly shifting back and forth in both time and point of view, Slaughter builds the suspense to a perfect crescendo, connecting every loose plot strand in a devastating and unforgettable climax."Please visit the Hidden Staircase Mystery Books where we are committed to providing readers and collectors of mystery books with the best and most current information about their favorite authors, titles, and series.
