The premise for The Murderer's Daughters strikes me as unusual and fascinating - the story of two girls who must grow into adulthood having witnessed the brutal murder of their mother at the hands of their father. Furthermore, the younger daughter was also savagely attacked by her father. The story is not a murder mystery or a horror story, but an absorbing, engaging and complex tale of the effects of domestic violence on these sisters over the course of 30 years.
