ABOUT THE GOOD DAUGHTER
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…

My Review:

​An incredible read. 

The story is devastating and some descriptions are not for the faint-hearted.
I felt very invested in all of the characters and the multiple versions of the stories intertwined beautifully. When the final chapter ended I was genuinely bereft. 

I’m glad to see that this book may be the first in a Good Daughter series, and if so, I can't wait for the next instalment from Karin Slaughter.

VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Many thanks to the publisher and NetGalley for providing me a complimentary copy of The Good Daughter in exchange for my honest review.
