This page turner of a legal thriller keeps you guessing until the end
After a man is murdered, Adam and Ulrika's 18 year old daughter, Stella, is the main suspect and arrested.
"We were a perfectly normal family, and then everything changed. It takes a long time to build a life, but only an instant for it to crumble." - Adam
Stella has always been a rather difficult child, but could she really have committed such a heinous crime? I really liked how the story was told from 3 different perspectives—father, daughter, and mother—with more and more details revealed as the story progressed. It really did make me wonder, if my child were in a similar situation, how far would I go, and how many lies would I tell, to protect him/her?
Even though the book is 400 pages long, the short chapters made it a quick read. I kept telling myself, I'll read just one more, one more, until I'd gobbled it all up! If you love thrillers, especially those involving a murder, then check this one out.
