| Plot Summary of The Other Daughter |
|---|
"This one twists and turns.. you think you know where it's going, then it takes a new direction. Is she really the daughter of a child killer? Why would this family adopt her? Not likely you will figure it all out before actually reading the end. It unravels little by little. The book was good, but not my favorite in writing styles. It is a great mystery though and I recommend reading. No questions left unanswered and it does have a good ending."
Carol Patton, Resident Scholar
