The Good Daughter
Audible Audiobook
– Unabridged
鶹
The BRAND NEW psychological thriller from the bestselling author of The Perfect Parents, J A Baker! A must-listen for fans of Claire Douglas, Freida McFadden and Lisa Jewell
She will have her day of reckoning
Penny Collins always tried to be a good daughter. Until the night she was brutally attacked as she lay in her bed...
The assault, from a man she knew all too well, traumatised Penny. Worse still, after her family refused to believe her initial fears about being watched, she told nobody, afraid her family would be convinced she was making the whole thing up...
Now, twenty years later, Penny cares for her elderly mother whose memory is fading daily. Still a good daughter, she tries not to think about the past, but her mother seems more insistent to talk about what happened that night... to drag up painful memories.
So when Penny comes face to face with her attacker again, she knows it’s time for her to take action and get answers for them all. This time he's in the dock where he belongs, accused of the same terrible crime. And Penny, a good daughter and now a good citizen, sits on the jury — his fate finally in her hands...
If only she can convince the others of his guilt...

5.0 out of 5 stars Great thriller
Verified PurchaseGood twists and turns with lots of surprises. Author had a good rhythm between past and present. Always giving just enough to lead into the next and/or help understand how so much of the past ked to the present.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another good one from Baker.
Verified PurchaseIt's always a pleasure to read a book by JA Baker - she writes so beautifully. And she writes characters who jump off the page. Penny and Connie are so well written, and Connie's dementia is so well portrayed. I also loved what to me was almost another character in the story - Hallshead House - it added a great level of creepiness to the story. Loved the ending - so well done.

2.0 out of 5 stars Has the author not heard of Statutory Rape?
Verified PurchaseThis story touched on extremely sad and disturbing subject matters. However I found it be tediously over descriptive and repetitive. It’s also glaringly obvious the defendant would be charged with Statutory Rape.

5.0 out of 5 stars A dark and chilling read.
Verified PurchaseAs a teenager, Penny made some mistakes that led her to be a fearful child. Life changed for her the moment she was attacked in her bed.
Only Penny’s mum knows about the attack and Penny has lived her life with no one to talk to.
When Penny has to do jury service, she is shocked to see her attacker in the dock, accused of rape. Can now be the time to finally get some justice for herself as well as the recent victim?
This was a dark and chilling read that was also full of suspense.
The first chapter is about Penny’s attack and that was extremely difficult to read. My heart went out to Penny as it’s an emotional story.
The story is told from two points of view. One is from Penny’s and we follow her through the jury service as well as her past. The other is from her mum’s point of view from living in the house where everything bad happened.
We watch Penny as she continuously unravels her past, trying to come to terms with things that happened to her. The author writes this well as it’s sympathetic and sensitive. I could feel Penny’s pain and frustration.
I found this story played on my mind a lot, even when I wasn’t reading it.

3.0 out of 5 stars Who gets away with raping a minor?
Verified PurchaseThis book was okay but I don't believe any court would actually return a verdict of not guilty to someone who raped a minor regardless of victims consent
