A gripping and emotional courtroom drama, Next of Kin follows the harrowing case of an aunt who makes an unthinkable mistake, forgetting her three-year-old nephew in the car, leading to devastating consequences.
This novel was our book club pick, and from the very first pages, I was hit with a wave of emotions. As a mother, the premise alone was one of my worst nightmares, and I thought I knew exactly where the story was headed. But I was wrong, again and again. Kia Abdullah masterfully weaves shocking twists into the narrative, keeping readers on edge and second-guessing every assumption.
Beyond the legal battle, this book explores deep themes of guilt, responsibility, and family dynamics, making it a perfect pick for book clubs and lovers of intense courtroom thrillers. If you enjoy stories that challenge your moral compass and leave you with plenty to discuss, Next of Kin is a must-read.
