Description

The provided Book consists of excerpts from Lisa Ballantyne's novel, "The Guilty One: The stunning Richard & Judy Book Club pick." The sections present two interwoven narratives: one concerning a lawyer, Daniel, defending an eleven-year-old boy, Sebastian, accused of murdering a younger child, and the other depicting Daniel's own childhood experiences in foster care with a woman named Minnie. The legal proceedings reveal complexities surrounding Sebastian's potential innocence or guilt, alongside his unsettling behavior and family situation. Simultaneously, flashbacks detail Daniel's troubled past, his relationship with Minnie, and the emotional challenges he faced as a neglected child. The juxtaposition of these stories explores themes of guilt, responsibility, the vulnerability of children, and the lasting impact of childhood trauma.
