Description
In Queens, New York a fatality in a Jewish family brings a twenty-one year old secret to the forefront. After the imminent death of Marnie Steinberg's father Todd - Marnie is shocked to discover the man who raised her is not her real father and her biological father, Daniel Riley, is in prison for raping her mother, a crime she is living proof of. Marnie obtains information about her real father, who is incarcerated in an accessible town, only to uncover a dark secret her father Todd went to his grave with, and one her mother Sherri has locked away in her conscience. A subplot of romantic intrigue arises when Marnie realizes her handsome Cousin Wilton, who was raised in England is not a blood relative. This discovery leads them into a whirlwind of uncharted territories that spin a tale of passion, deceit and irony in THE GOOD DAUGHTER.
