Does doing one bad thing make you a bad person?

Sixteen-year-old Emily Keller, known by the media as Keller the Killer, is accused of causing the deaths of four family members, including young children. Emily is one of the youngest females to be accused of a crime so heinous, making this the nation’s biggest trial of the year. But what really happened that fateful night―and who’s responsible―is anything but straightforward.

Living in a trailer park in Baltimore with her twin brother and alcoholic mother, Emily’s life hasn’t been easy. She’s had to grow up fast, and like any teen, has made questionable decisions in a desperate attempt to fit in with her peers. Will her mistakes amount to a guilty verdict and a life in prison? It’s up to the jury to decide.

For readers who enjoy Luckiest Girl Alive by Jessica Knoll, 13 Reasons Why by Jay
Asher, and One of Us is Lying by Karen M. McManus.

 

REVIEW

My Thoughts 

The debut Girl on Trial by Kathleen Fine is an absolutely captivating legal thriller that will keep you on the edge of your seat from start to finish. From the very first page, Fine’s brilliant storytelling grabs hold of your attention and never lets go.

Fine’s writing is masterful, with vivid descriptions that immerse the reader in the courtroom drama. The characters are well-developed and realistic, each with their own motivations and secrets. The pacing is perfect, with suspenseful twists and turns that kept me guessing until the very end.

I highly recommend Girl on Trial to fans of legal thrillers and anyone looking for a thought-provoking read. Kathleen Fine has crafted an engaging and compelling story that will leave readers eager for more.

Thank you to Jamie from Rockstar Book Tours and the author for allowing me to read and review this book.
