A GOOD KILLING
Former federal sex crimes prosecutor and critically acclaimed author Allison Leotta's latest thriller in her Anna Curtis series follows the young prosecutor as she’s summoned to Michigan to defend her sister from the charge of murder.
The sister she always tried to protect is on trial for life. Coach Fowler, the beloved hometown football coach, is dead. For prosecutor Anna Curtis, all her cases are important—but this one is personal. And it will bring her to her knees.
The two sisters are close, but their lives couldn’t be more different. Anna is a successful prosecutor and Harvard Law School grad living in D.C., while Jody never left Michigan and works on the assembly line at GM, like everyone else in town.
When Anna gets the call that Jody is in trouble, her own world is in shambles. The life she built with her fiancé and stepdaughter is over, just weeks before their wedding. A trip back home would be a welcome distraction, if only it wasn’t under these circumstances.
With her job in D.C. on the line and her sister’s life hanging in the balance, Anna must step on the other side of the courtroom to defend her sister. But the laws inside and out of the courtroom are different in this small town. And as Anna investigates she soon wonders if her sister—or anyone in this town—is telling the truth about Coach Fowler. Uncovering his secrets could cost both women their lives.
