The Good Daughter: A BRAND NEW gripping, addictive, psychological thriller from J A Baker for 2025

The BRAND NEW psychological thriller from the bestselling author of The Perfect Parents, J A Baker! A must-read for fans of Claire Douglas, Freida McFadden and Lisa Jewell ⚠️ She will have her day of reckoning 🩸

Penny Collins always tried to be a good daughter. Until the night she was brutally attacked as she lay in her bed...

The assault, from a man she knew all too well, traumatised Penny. Worse still, after her family refused to believe her initial fears about being watched, she told nobody, afraid her family would be convinced she was making the whole thing up...

Now, twenty years later, Penny cares for her elderly mother whose memory is fading daily. Still a good daughter, she tries not to think about the past, but her mother seems more insistent to talk about what happened that night... to drag up painful memories.

So when Penny comes face to face with her attacker again, she knows it’s time for her to take action and get answers for them all. This time he's in the dock where he belongs, accused of the same terrible crime. And Penny, a good daughter and now a good citizen, sits on the jury — his fate finally in her hands...

If only she can convince the others of his guilt... 👀
