Claire is the wife of an Atlanta millionaire while Lydia struggles to make ends meet as a single mother. For two decades the sisters have avoided all contact and tried to bury the memories of their shared loss within the family, but that's all about to change. With the murder of Claire's husband, the women call a truce and reconnect. The traumatized siblings not only must finally acknowledge and deal with the secrets that tore their family apart years ago but they also come to realize that these two events, separated by so many years, are related. This poignant and unsettling psychological thriller demonstrates that Karin Slaughter hasn't lost her touch when it comes to creating best sellers. Pretty Girls is as gripping and entertaining as any of her previous successful novels.
