My Recommendation

 

Hannah talks her way into working on the university Innocence Project and really wants to work on a specific case - a man on death-row for rape and murder.  However, Hannah has an alternative motive. 
Told from the point of view of Hannah in present and from her mum Laura’s diary when she was 19.  As the story develops, more and more detail from Laura’s past and Hannah’s motive is disclosed.  Lots of twists and a steady amount of intrigue keeps you wanted to read more.
