THE ROW BY J.R. JOHANSSON is told in the perspective of Riley, the child of a serial killer on death row, or is he serial killer ? Riley , who was six when her father was arrested , tried and convicted of being a serial killer, is now seventeen & her father is one month away from being executed for the brutal murders of women. Riley up to this point has always stood by her father,visiting him weekly in prison & determined to prove his innocence. When the last appeal has been denied Riley's father tells her that he did commit the murders. Riley, shaken by the confession sets out to prove he's lying about that so he can make his punishment for the murders easier on her.
The story is told in the perspective of the child of a serial killer. Its a different perspective. Usually its told by the killer or the police. Here we see the child's point of view. How people treat her like a serial killer herself, whether at work or in the neighborhood.
The more you get into the book the more you want to see Riley's dad found innocent. It keeps you on the edge of your seat and wanting to know more. Its then ending of the book that really blew me out of the water.
I recieved this book free from goodreads in exchange for an honest review.
