The story has some riveting points - a child, a pre-teen abandoned in a crumbling shack with no running water and no electricity grows up at the edge of a swamp. Of course, friends help but she has to find her own way.
When a dead body is discovered she becomes a suspect.
The story telling falls apart for me because obvious questions go unasked and as far as I'm concerned the prosecutor has no case.
