Publisher's Summary

The fantastic prequel to The Good Daughter, the stunning new stand-alone from the number-one best-selling author of the Will Trent and Grant County series.

Protecting someone always comes at a cost.

At the age of 13, Charlie Quinn's childhood came to an abrupt and devastating end. Two men, with a grudge against her lawyer father, broke into Charlie's home - and after that shocking night, her 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?

So it just ends…

I enjoyed the storyline and the characters but when it ended I was like “what the heck?!” It seemed so abrupt, like it was just getting started. It definitely needs a more developed ending

I really enjoyed the story! it was super good, but the ending was not what I expected. I was not ready for the book to be over! what a cliff hanger.

Good Prequel

This book was filled with many twists and turns. Karin Slaughter knows how to build her characters and keep you on edge.

As this is the prequel to The Good Daughter, it gives you a look at Charlie Quinn. This book was short and left the story hanging.

I recommend this book.

Not long enough

My only criticism of this book is that it's not long enough. I wanted more.

Last. Breath

A story in which justice is not served. I really enjoyed the book until near the end.
