Girl A

Description

The story follows Lex Gracie, who the world knows as “Girl A”—the eldest daughter who escaped a “House of Horrors” and freed her six siblings from their parents’ sadistic neglect. Now a successful lawyer in New York, Lex has spent her adult life trying to outrun her past. However, when her mother dies in prison and leaves the family home to all seven children, Lex is forced to return to England to act as the executor of the will. To turn the house into a community center for good, she must reconnect with each of her siblings—some who have found success, some who are broken, and some who still refuse to see the truth. The novel moves between the grim reality of their childhood and the complex, varying ways each survivor has processed their shared trauma.
