When I saw the blurb for this book I was immediately intrigued. Two sisters on trial, accusing each other of murdering their father. 

I loved that this story was told mostly from the point of view of the lawyers representing each sister, with some chapters interspersed from the true killer. I think this story was paced well and the parts were broken up well. The courtroom drama felt very authentic, and I learned in the acknowledgments that Steve Cavanagh was a lawyer. 

This was definitely a very gripping story and I was on the fence the whole time about who really killed Frank Avellino. In the end, I think justice was served! 

Thank you Atria and NetGalley for the eARC!
