Unforgettable female leads." -Cara Reinard, author of Sweet Water " The Darkest Flower is a fast-paced legal drama that pulls you in from the first page to the last. From its attention-grabbing first line to the chilling revelations of its conclusion, this book is a stay-up-all-night read." -Megan Collins, author of The Winter Sister and Behind the Red Door "In The Darkest Flower, Kristin Wright takes the legal thriller to a new level when a PTA mom is poisoned (she survives!) and the main suspect is more venomous than the toxin used in the attempted murder. With pitch-black humor, a fresh and engrossing voice, and one of the most fascinating characters I've come across, Kristin Wright explores the toxicity of privilege-and its ability to poison people from the inside out. This book is a dark delight, and Kristin Wright is an author I'll be closely watching." -Margarita Montimore, USA Today bestselling author of Oona Out of Order " The Darkest Flower is juicy, suspenseful, and wickedly fun. The women inhabiting this story are bold, clever, complex, and deliciously thorny-quick to show you what they're capable of if you dare underestimate them. I found myself laughing out loud at the sociopathic PTA mom, Kira." -Marcia Clark, bestselling author and iconic former LA prosecutor "Impressive and intoxicating. "A fun-and funny-tale of PTA moms and the small-town lawyer mom whose quest for success leads to a moral dilemma. What about those in Kira's orbit, a sunny suburb of moms behaving badly? What do they really know about Kira? What does Kira know about them? For Allison, the answers are getting darker every day. Besides, with an image as carefully cultivated as her garden, Kira would be insane to risk everything on something as outrageous as the attempted murder of one of her closest friends. But no one said the innocent had to be likable-or entirely honest. And PTA president Kira Grant certainly appears innocent-except for the toxic bloom in her backyard and perhaps a bit of a malicious streak. A win for her high-profile new client will give Allison the career she deserves. Ambitious defense attorney and single mother Allison Barton is anxious to escape the shadow of the low-down dog of a marquee partner carrying their renowned Virginia law firm. Now all eyes are on the accused, the victim, and a woman hired to look deeper. Attempted murder? Inexplicable accident? Either way, a PTA mom struggled for her life in an elementary school cafeteria, poisoned by a wolfsbane-laced smoothie at the fifth-grade graduation party. You'll never believe the terrible things being said about the perfect president of the PTA.
