The Evidence Against You
Gillian McAllister
It's the day her father will be released from jail. Izzy English has every reason to feel conflicted - he's the man who gave her a childhood filled with happy memories. But he has also just served seventeen years for the murder of her mother. Now, Izzy's father sends her a letter. He wants to talk, to defend himself against each piece of evidence from his trial. But should she give him the benefit of the doubt? Or is her father guilty as charged, and luring her into a trap?

It was interesting.
I liked the premise and I was really curious to know what actually happened.
However, there were a few flaws that didn't let me enjoy the book 100%.
A little bit too much meandering. All those flashbacks that start and finish without the warning right in the middle of a paragraph. I hate when it happens.
Plus, Izzy as a main character is a bit too passive. So she had a great relationship with her father before his arrest. Yet, the minute he's arrested she just accepts that he's guilty and doesn't even try to figure out anything about the case herself?It could make sense if she was like 7 when everything transpired, but she was 17, almost an adult, and she just believed her beloved father is a murderer without looking at the evidence?
Anyway, it was a great read, so 3.5 sounds like a fair rating.
