Summary

She thought she'd buried her past. But what if it's been hunting her this whole time?

From the best-selling and award-winning author Karen Dionne comes a startling novel of psychological suspense as two generations of sisters try to unravel their tangled relationships between nature and nurture, guilt and betrayal, love and evil.

You have been cut off from society for 15 years, shut away in a mental hospital in self-imposed exile as punishment for the terrible thing you did when you were a child.

But what if nothing about your past is as it seems?

And if you didn't accidentally shoot and kill your mother, then whoever did is still out there. Waiting for you.

For a decade and a half, Rachel Cunningham has chosen to lock herself away in a psychiatric facility, tortured by gaps in her memory and the certainty that she is responsible for her parents' deaths. But when she learns new details about their murders, Rachel returns, in a quest for answers, to the place where she once felt safest: her family's sprawling log cabin in the remote forests of Michigan.

As Rachel begins to uncover what really happened on the day her parents were murdered, she learns - as her mother did years earlier - that home can be a place of unspeakable evil, and that the bond she shares with her sister might be the most poisonous of all.

A bit silly

I enjoyed The Marsh King’s Daughter so thought I’d check this out. It was intriguing at first but the story got really silly and prompted giggles in some places. Just a bit too daft to be genuinely suspenseful. The narrators were good though.

Disturbing and sickening

Similar to Karen’s previous book Marsh King’s daughter about a psychopath enjoying cruelty. This time it’s a child murdering children and enjoying animal cruelty.
Marsh Kings daughter was an unusual read with several disturbing moments which were sort of digestible given the circumstances of wilderness and mental disturbance of the “King”.
The wicked sister - Diana is a child psychopath and has loving parents who somehow tolerate her sickening behaviour and killing children. How weird is this?
I enjoy adventurous book describing wilderness and I did enjoy Marsh King’s daughter much more than this sickening and unbelievably dark story about a family giving up their lives and moving into remote area in order to protect others from cruelty of their own daughter.
It’s only a story, I know, but still makes me wonder why is Karen into writing disturbing novels about psychopaths.
This reading is just not for me, I guess, and I am done with this kind of books.
Narration was good and I listened to it all despite wanting to quit half way through. Too disturbing for my liking.
