Review: The Good Daughter - by Karin Slaughter

The Good Daughter - by Karin Slaughter
Audiobook
Blackstone Audio Inc. 2017
Narrated by Kathleen Early

My Rating (out of 5)
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

An exciting and intricately woven thriller.  I hung on every word.

When "Charlie" is just 13 years old an unspeakable act of violence shatters her world and devastates her family.

Almost 30 years later, Charlie has moved on and done her best to put the evil of that day behind her. She is married, and has followed her father's footsteps by becoming a lawyer - though she tends to avoid the types of criminals her father is famous for assisting.   But that amount of evil is not prone to stay in the shadows.  When another violent incident rocks the small town she lives in - one she is there to witness first hand, the trauma and secrets of that day come rushing back.

This book grabs you early and WILL NOT LET GO until the end.  Expertly and intricately woven. layer upon layer.

The narrator was wonderful  Able to give tone to the myriad of emotions.  Her portrayal of Rusty had definite southern charm.

Happy Reading,
Christine
