Description
SOON TO BE A PEACOCK LIMITED SERIES STARRING ROSE BYRNE AND MEGHANN FAHY
An instant New York Times bestseller
Two girls are forced into the woods at gunpoint. One runs for her life. One is left behind...
Twenty-eight years ago, Charlotte and Samantha Quinn's happy small-town family life was torn apart by a terrifying attack on their family home. It left their mother dead. It left their father—Pikeville's notorious defence attorney—devastated. And it left the family fractured beyond repair, consumed by secrets from that terrible night.
Twenty-eight years later, and Charlie has followed in her father's footsteps to become a lawyer herself—the ideal good daughter. But when violence comes to Pikeville again—and a shocking tragedy leaves the whole town traumatised—Charlie is plunged into a nightmare. Not only is she the first witness on the scene, but it's a case that unleashes the terrible memories she's spent so long trying to suppress. Because the shocking truth about the crime that destroyed her family nearly thirty years ago won't stay buried forever...
Packed with twists and turns, brimming with emotion and heart, The Good Daughter is fiction at its most thrilling.
