Protecting someone always comes at a cost. At the age of thirteen, Charlie Quinn's childhood came to an abrupt and devastating end. Two men, with a grudge against her lawyer father, broke into her home--and after that shocking night, Charlie's world was never the same. Now a lawyer herself, Charlie has made it her mission to defend those with no one else to turn to. So when Flora Faulkner, a motherless teen, begs for help, Charlie is reminded of her own past, and is powerless to say no. But honor-student Flora is in far deeper trouble than Charlie could ever have anticipated. Soon she must ask herself: How far should she go to protect her client? And can she truly believe everything she is being told? Razor-sharp and lightning-fast, this electrifying story from the #1 international bestselling author will leave you breathless. And be sure to read Karin Slaughter's extraordinary new novel The Good Daughter --available August 22, 2017.
If you read The Good Daughter and enjoyed it, then you'll enjoy the prequel novella Last Breath. Gives more neat insight into Charlotte's mindset of herself and her marriage before the events of The Good Daughter and some of the cases she's come across. Can be read as a standalone. It truly is just a spin off novella having little to do with the novel. The case she deals with in the novella was very interesting though and was a good little read.
