5.0 out of 5 stars US publication of Skin Privileges, 26 July 2007
Not very good of Amazon recommending this as a book to buy with Skin Privileges when this is the same book

4.0 out of 5 stars Skin Privilege/Beyond Reach, 14 Aug 2007
By KM (England) - See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)      
'Skin Privilege' (called 'Beyond Reach' in the U.S.), the sixth book in Karin Slaughter's Grant County series begins when Sara and her husband, police chief Jeffrey Tolliver, must travel to rural Reese, where Lena Adams, Jeffrey's often reckless detective, has been injured in an explosion that killed a local woman. Lena's mysterious escape from the hospital plunges her, Sara and Jeffrey into a dangerous web of meth trafficking, white supremacy groups and long-buried family secrets.

Once you get past the slow start this book is a brilliant read that is truly unputdownable. Slaughter expertly shifts back and forth in both time and point of view connecting every loose plot strand in a devastating and unforgettable climax. My only real complaint about this book is the fact that the story all revolves around Lena (again) as she isn't the best character in the series by a long shot and her almost teenager-like attitude and persona is becoming increasingly more annoying with each book. Otherwise this is an excellent read that fans of the series should love and the shocking and unforgettable ending is strong enough to whet your appetite for Slaughters next book, Sleeping Dogs, due in 2008.

5.0 out of 5 stars Engrossingly Brilliant, 19 Aug 2007
The author's books are great for many reasons, but one that particular comes to mind are characters. They aren't Mary Sues and Gary Stus - these people are really screwed up, and none so more than my favourite, Lena Adams. This novel takes us out of Grant County where Lena is suspect of a brutal murder. And she's flown the coop. This is a woman who doesn't want to be saved, yet seemingly doesn't want to save herself, either. And the people populating her hometown...yep, they're screwed up, too. They keep family secrets, they're big on drugs, and skinheads unfortunately abound. But what's most surprising about this novel? The final page. Don't spoil it for yourself, readers. All I'm saying is that there better be another book in this series, because I need closure! Another author I'll be seeing at the Melbourne Writers' Festival this year.

Yes, this is a good Karin Slaughter book but it is not a new one. It is just a different title. It is also known as 'Skin Privelege'. So don't be fooled into buying it. Read more
