Publisher's Summary

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 defense attorney - devastated. And it left the family fractured beyond repair, consumed by secrets from that terrible night.

Twenty-eight years later, 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 traumatized - 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 30 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.

Great Listen!

#Audible1:
Loved the story line and the narrator did a great job. This had a great story and had me from the beginning. I was a title disappointed that the ending wrapped up so quickly. Looking forward to listening to other books by this author.

Great story

I really enjoyed this book and the narration was very good. Some pretty graphic descriptions of violence so some listeners may not enjoy that but overall the story was a good one- Will be looking for more Karen Slaughter books! #Audible1

A Real "page turner"

I LOVED this book. I listened on my almost hour commute each evening. Most nights, I found myself sitting in my driveway listening . I hated for it to come to an end.

“A good read”.

Character development was well done. I was able to gain some emotional connection to both girls in the story. Enjoyed the descriptive language; almost poetic. Anyone who says this works was anything but well done is foolish, though there were some “slow” moments that would have been non existent I think if I had physically read rather then listened to this book. “A good read”
