Pretty girls: a novel
(Book)
Description
Sisters. Strangers. Survivors. It's been more than twenty years since Claire and Lydia last spoke. Claire is the glamorous trophy wife of an Atlanta millionaire; Lydia, a single mother dating an ex-con, struggles to make ends meet. But neither has recovered from the disappearance of their sister Julia two decades earlier -- and the shocking murder of Claire's husband brings the horror and heartbreak of the past roaring back into their lives. The vanishing of a teenage girl and the killing of a middle-aged man, almost a quarter-century apart: what could connect them? As they form a wary truce, the surviving sisters unearth the secrets that destroyed their family all those years ago...and find the astonishing truth where they least expected it.
