The Guilty One by Lisa Ballantyne

4.0

This novel is more than a crime novel; it is an exploration on the damage that can be (and is) done to children by the unthinking acts of their parents. This is a story of a damaged boy made good defending a damaged boy who is a sociopath and the memories elicited by their interaction. Very well written and excellent character development.
