Child is less concerned with character development than Slaughter.

Explanation:

Karin Slaughter is an American writer who has penned many crime novels. In her NPR interview, she emphasized on the character development. She believes that when a character is developed the readers get more intrigued to the novel and they would want to read along.

Lee Child, on the other hand, is a British Thriller writer. In his article 'A Simple Way to Create Suspense' he gave less importance to the character development when he writes

"So writers are taught to focus on ingredients and their combination. They're told they should create attractive, sympathetic characters, so that readers will care about them deeply, and then to plunge those characters into situations of continuing peril,"

So, the correct option is the first one.
