The Prized Girl
by Amy K. Green
4 stars for this twisty tale of murder, secrets and family
I’m so glad I made time for this book - what a perfect escape read!
14 year old pageant queen, Jenny, is found murdered in the woods and at first glance it appears to be the work of an obsessed pedophile but not all is what is seems in Jenny’s picture perfect life.
Jenny’s sister, Virginia, thinks they’ve arrested the wrong man and she is determined to find the truth. With the help of the lead Detective on the case she digs into Jenny’s life and what really happened that fateful night.
The more Virginia digs, the more secrets she uncovers. Not only did she not really know what her sister was up to in the weeks leading up to her death but it seems she never really knew her family at all.
Deceit, long kept secrets, family dysfunction and unfortunate circumstance play a huge role in this story. I loved the tangled web woven by Amy Green and she definitely threw some twists in there that I never saw coming!
