Synopsis: As soon as they processed my release Noah and I hit the ground running. A change of clothes. A wig. An inconspicuous sedan. We doubled back once, twice, then drove south when we were really headed east. In San Francisco we had a girl who looked like me board a plane to Hawaii.
Oh, I thought I was so clever.
But you probably already know that I'm not.
LA IT girl Janie Jenkins has it all. The looks, the brains, the connections. The criminal record.
Ten years ago, in a trial that transfixed America, Janie was convicted of murdering her mother. Now she's been released on a technicality she's determined to unravel the mystery of her mother's last words, words that send her to a tiny town in the very back of beyond. But with the whole of America's media on her tail, convinced she's literally got away with murder, she has to do everything she can to throw her pursuers off the scent.
She knows she really didn't like her mother. Could she have killed her?

| I found that Dear Daughter wasn't my cup of tea. I enjoyed the premise and I thought that it was creative and had lots of potential. Personally, I just found it too slow for my taste, and top that with the lack of payoff in the end, it made this book a miss for me. Watch my video to see all of my thoughts on Dear Daughter. Did you read Dear Daughter? If so, please share your thoughts with me. I'd like to know if you enjoyed it or not. Happy Reading, ~Tamara On a mobile device? Watch the coordinating video here! | |
