"Twenty-eight years ago,
Charlotte and Samantha Quinn's happy small-town family life was torn
apart by a terrifying attack on their family home. It left their mother
dead. It left their father—Pikeville's notorious defense
attorney—devastated. And it left the family fractured beyond repair,
consumed by secrets from that terrible night.
Twenty-eight years
later, Charlotte has followed in her father's footsteps to become a
lawyer herself—the ideal good daughter. But when violence comes to
Pikeville again, and a shocking tragedy leaves the whole town
traumatized, Charlotte is plunged into a nightmare. Not only is she the
first witness on the scene, but it's a case that unleashes the terrible
memories she's spent so long trying to suppress--because the shocking
truth about the crime that destroyed her family nearly thirty years ago
won't stay buried forever. Packed with twists and turns, brimming with
emotion and heart, The Good Daughter is fiction at its most thrilling."--Goodreads blurb
I've read a lot of Karin Slaughter this year, and she is not for the faint of heart. This book was one of my favorites of hers. Not as traumatic to read and great writing by Slaughter, as usual. The family dynamics themselves were a great character in this book. Twisty and twisted.
