Two girls are forced into the woods at gunpoint. One runs for her life. One is left behind …
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, Charlie 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—Charlie 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.
Customer Reviews
Very good but long
Had to re read the first chapter 3 times - there was a lot of characters and moving parts to the rest of the story. It was super good, I wanted to keep reading, but was slightly disappointed with the ending, it felt slightly predictable. However I still highly recommend. Good overall.
Very good!
Karin does not disappoint! Could’ve had a heads up about the details of the rape but I just skimmed through that part! Everything I’ve read from Karin Slaughter has been gripping, can’t put down reads!
First Book to Make me Cry
Karin sure can write. This one isn’t for the faint of heart. I enjoyed the story line. Definitely a lot of emotions in this one
