The stunning No. 1 Sunday Times bestselling thriller, soon to be a major TV show starring Rose Byrne and Meghann Fahy.

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 home. It left their mother dead. It left their father devastated. And it left the family consumed by secrets from that shocking night.

Now, Charlie is a respected lawyer. But when violence comes to their hometown again, the case triggers memories she's desperately tried to suppress. Because the devastating truth about the crime which destroyed their family won't stay buried forever…

The good daughter did everything right. But what if everything she knows is wrong?

A little gruesome in parts, sometimes a little unnecessary I felt, but did not detract from an excellent story, very well read with a perfectly fitting accent.
Not read or listened to Karin Slaughter before, will definitely give more a go.

Excellent story, well read

This is the first book by Karin Slaughter I have read. Sorry to have reached the end of it. Frequently bought to mind To Kill a Mocking Bird. Fabulous use of language. Some really outstanding moments . Read this book.

Brilliant!
