This book is about a murder of a man that lived a double life. The book gives you insight on the victim, the detectives and the author of the book who happened to be the daughter of the murder victim. We learn about the person who committed the crime and others. The book was well written and the trial was interesting. The book pulled me in from page one and kept me engrossed until the end. Very good true crime book. Thanks to Netgalley for the chance to read this book for my honest reveiw.

What a fantastic book! Author Denise Wallace did an excellent job telling the story of her father's murder while having to relive painful memories from her childhood and then discover that he led an alternative life style. This book grabbed my attention from the first page and it was hard to put down. I highly recommend this book.

This book must have been very painful to write, but it is written beautifully. It is the story of a child who discovers her parents as the adults she never knew. We all have secrets and bad habits that we try to cover up. Especially in front of a child. It is clear that Dad loved his daughter but could not resist his needs.
A child can't see how off or unacceptable behavior of cherished parent.
When one of those parents is lost suddenly and tragically, the desire to know and understand how it could have happened is both compelling and dangerous. As the layers of the onion are peeled back, the child has to reconsider memories and assumptions that shake her foundations.

This book is so well written, with pain, confusion and compassion. The author's voice and clarity tell the story articulately, in some cases, eloquently.
It is hard to imagine the journey the author had to take, but her honesty and candor throughout reveals awful truths she had to discover and accept.
It does make me wonder about my parents, what secrets they must have.

The author of this did a terrific job depicting the life of such a complex character and what his daughter had to go through. I found this to be riveting and especially enjoyed the trial scenes.

One of the best true crime books I have read. Unflinchingly honest, even when dealing with difficult private matters. Beautifully written. Highly recommended for all readers.

Such a heartbreaking story of a daughter seeking justice for her father. The saddest thing is that nothing can return her father to her and all of his secrets caused more pain. There were times when, if this were fiction, I would be critical of the author but this was not fiction. One of those times when fiction is stranger than life. Thank you to Netgalley for recommending this story. Although well written, this story is exhausting and requires some emotional R&R for recovery.

Daddy's Little Secret is far more heartbreaking than I'm accustomed to reading from a true crime book. It was also incredibly gripping, engaging, and an exciting read.

The author did a fantastic job of telling the story of her childhood and the murder of her father. It must have been very painful and emotional to put her thoughts in writing.This is a very interesting and thought provoking book. A must read for lovers of true crime. Thanks to Denise Wallace for this insight into her life and the life of her father. Many thanks to Net Galley for my copy. I reviewed on Goodreads.

This is a great true crime book as that it gets right to the point. All characters are explained and this makes it easy to follow along. The majority of this book is dealing with the trial although it does start off with the actual crime itself. Family is explained as far as the daughter and the father mostly and the fact that the daughter had no clue as to her fathers homosexuality so the trial was both shocking and hard for her. I would recommend this to true crime readers as it gets right to the point and doesn't add in a lot of unnecessary points.

wow!!! Talk about determination! Very good book and very well written! Thanks so much for the copy! I would like to purchase a copy for the store!!!
