Summary
The stunning No. 1 Sunday Times bestselling thriller from the critically acclaimed author.
One ran. One stayed. But who is…the good daughter?
Twenty-eight years ago, Charlotte and Samantha Quinn's childhoods were destroyed by a terrifying attack on their family home. It left their mother dead. It left their father – a notorious defence attorney – devastated. And it left the family consumed by secrets from that shocking night.
Twenty-eight years later, Charlie has followed in her father's footsteps to become a lawyer. But when violence comes to their home town again, the case triggers memories she's desperately tried to suppress. Because the shocking truth about the crime which destroyed her family won't stay buried for ever…
Critic reviews
"Karin Slaughter has - by far - the best name of all of us mystery novelists. More to the point, The Good Daughter is Karin Slaughter's most ambitious, most emotional, and best novel. So far, anyway." (James Patterson)
"Simply the best book you'll read all year. Raw, powerful and utterly gripping - yet written with a tenderness and empathy that will break your heart." (Kathryn Stockett, best-selling author of The Help)

Not a comfortable read
Rarely have I come across characters that I have cared about so much. Some of the events were brutal, but the words were never gratuitous. The emotions were raw. There was guilt, self justification, self doubt and self discovery and an understanding of human imperfections. The truth came out in the end.
The reader had a lightness of touch which made the darkest parts seem believable, avoiding over dramatisation.

Captivating story, really well told.
Emotional, distressing at times, with very believable characters and storyline. A thoroughly enthralling book, really well told by the narrator.

One of the best books I’ve ever read
This is without doubt one of Karin Slaughter’s best books. I could not stop listening to it. An intriguing storyline from beginning to end. The narrator was excellent. One of the few books I’d listen to again!

Highly recommend
Gripping from the start I was completely hooked, the characters were instantly likeable with quick amusing dialogue.
It is a heart wrenching story and has a few unexpected twists as the story unfolds.
I will definitely be getting her next book
