Synopsis

When Angela was young, before she came to realize she had a rare ability, she was a rather ordinary girl. At least, that was what everyone said. But Angela is anything but ordinary. The daughter of a meth addict, she is convinced she was born a freak. Haunted by an abusive childhood, she was forced to become a woman far too soon. And in the process, she became more.

Angela juggles multiple jobs to live a secluded life in a cabin in the mountains. But she also lives a secret life, right under everyone's noses. Because her family's bloodline carries the ability to recognize killers, she adopts a solitary, violent existence in service of her own, personal mission in life. When Angela unexpectedly finds herself the prey of a group of international terrorists, she is the only one who knows the truth of what they are about to do. She might look like an unlikely hero. She might also be our only hope.

About Terry Goodkind

One would never think that a person with dyslexia would become a writer of novels. However, American author, Terry Goodkind crossed the usual boundary and wrote his first novel, even though he did not receive a formal education. He began his adult life building cabinets and violins, as well as was a marine/wildlife artist. His first novel, Wizard's First Rule, was published in 1994, thus beginning his illustrious career. He is now also a part-time race car driver, and is also a devoted husband and a friend to animals.

To quote Author Terry Goodkind........My privilege in life is the joy of writing books and telling stories about people who fascinate me, the good and the bad.

Goodkind's newest novel is NEST, where readers will be drawn into a world that is dark and evil. He remains one of the most controversial thriller writers of our time.

Full disclosure : I won a free autographed copy of this book in a Goodreads giveaway. The Girl in the Moon builds upon ideas from Goodkind’s previous book, Nest. There are also characters in common. That said, TGITM can be read on its own, without any prior knowledge of the earlier book. Angela Const......more

Goodreads review by Victoria

Yeahhhh.... soooo This story needs a TRIGGER WARNING. There are REALLY graphic scenes of child rape. I mean, downright grotesque scenes of child rape and abuse. Some of these descriptions were completely unnecessary and didn't need to be added to the story. I mean, really Terry, you wanted your audie......more

Goodreads review by Michelle

This book was intense! I loved it. Angela is fascinating in so many ways. I love how bad-ass she is, and for all of the right reasons! The story sucked me in and had my blood pressure up, but not in that maddening way that I hate. My heart raced, and I had fun learning what made Angela tick, and won......more

Goodreads review by Jannet

I truly hope that this is not the end. I'm not one to read these type of books. I really enjoyed this book A LOT. This book-this character; Angela seems too large for it to just end. I'm always skeptical of men who try to write in a women's point of view... I know SHAME on me, lol; and to be complet......more

Goodreads review by Albert Elnen

It is hard not to like Angela. I know a lot of enforcement officers wouldn't approve of her tactics. But regular folks would love someone like Angela to protect them. Laws are made to protect people, but many times they hurt not only the victims , but also the people who enforce the laws. Like I sai......more
