鈥楪ood Killing鈥 a great procedural thriller
“A Good Killing,” Allison Leotta’s new page-turner, has sex-crimes prosecutor Anna Curtis heading home to defend her sister, who has been arrested in the death of a high school coach.
Anna’s sister, Jody, was last seen with the coach in a bar, and they went away together. Jody has had a crush on him since her high school days, so would an affair be out of the question? She says they were sleeping together, which explains evidence found in her home.
Jody’s innocence grows doubtful as the story unfolds. An uneasy truth that the town wants to ignore doesn’t help Anna’s case, even if it means injustice.
Like the best episodes of “Law and Order,” the main premise is ripped from the headlines, but to mention the specific case would give away too much.
Leotta knows her way around the courtroom and doesn’t avoid uncomfortable topics. Following Anna on the path to the truth is an enjoyable one.
