Darling Girls
Get ready for another twisty domestic thriller from the New York Times bestselling author of THE SOULMATE.
From the outside, Alicia, Jessica and Norah might seem like ordinary women you'd meet on the street any day of the week. Sure, Jessica has a little OCD and Norah has some anger issues. And Alicia has low self-esteem that manifests itself in surprising ways. But these three have a bond that no one can fully understand. It's a bond that takes them back decades, to when they were girls, and they lived on a farm with a foster mother named Miss Fairchild. Miss Fairchild had rules. Miss Fairchild could be unpredictable. And Miss Fairchild was never, ever to be crossed. In a moment of desperation, the three broke away from Miss Fairchild, and they thought they were free. But the reach of someone with such power is long, and even though they never saw her again, she was always somewhere in the shadows of their minds. When bones are discovered buried under the farmhouse of their childhood, they are called in by the police to tell what they know. Against their will, they are brought back to the past, and to Miss Fairchild herself. DARLING GIRLS asks the questions: what are we capable of when in a desperate place? How much can we hide the demons inside us? And can the past ever truly be buried?
Reviews
I read this book in one sitting and literally couldn’t have been more immersed in this explicably fascinating and brilliantly crafted story. I had whiplash from the harrowing plot twists and the heart pounding anticipation of the shocking and unexpected revelations that kept on coming filling in a little more of the pieces to an extraordinary puzzle that was as complex and dynamic as the characters lives and experiences they’d endured and the ending that blew my mind. A MUST READ!

This sad story revolves around three girls caught in the foster care system, under a narcissistic foster parent. How they deal with their trauma and overcome their abuse. Excellent read. Do not miss this one.
