This novella is the prequel to pretty girls. I was unaware of this book at the time of reading pretty girls, however I feel that it actually helped to read it afterwards as it was told from Julia’s perspective and cleared up some assumptions made, mainly by the police, after her disappearance within pretty girls. Whilst it may only be a short story, the writing is just as good as in other books by Karin Slaughter.
It is heartbreaking to read about how Julia gets to experience her virginity being taken, something that she desperately wanted to happen, with someone she loved before reading her perspective during her last few moments as it dawns on her that she is about to be taken.
