What happens after the world learns your deepest, darkest secret-one you didn't even know you were keeping?In My Father's Last Victim 2: The Aftermath - Picking Up the Pieces of a Shattered Past, Claire Smith returns with a powerful and deeply personal sequel to her gripping memoir. The first book revealed the horrifying truth: the man she had loved, trusted, and called "Dad" was a monster hiding in plain sight-a serial murderer whose crimes shattered families, stole lives, and left behind a wake of devastation.Now, Claire must navigate the aftermath of that revelation. The trial is over, but the echoes of her father's sins remain. The whispers follow her wherever she goes. The stares in the grocery store, the hushed conversations, the questions that never seem to stop-"Did you know?" "How could you not have seen it?" "Are you just like him?"Determined to reclaim her identity beyond his crimes, Claire embarks on a journey of self-discovery, facing difficult questions about who she is without him, how trauma shapes the mind, and whether justice can truly bring closure. From the painful confrontation with her mother, to the nightmares that refuse to let her go, to her struggle with forgiveness-or the lack thereof-Claire lays bare the unfiltered truth of what it means to survive not just the crimes themselves, but their consequences.Through therapy, self-reflection, and the courage to tell her own story, she fights to rebuild a future that is hers alone-one where she is not defined by the man who raised her, but by the strength of the woman she is becoming.Raw, emotional, and ultimately hopeful, My Father's Last Victim 2 is a memoir about resilience, survival, and the power of breaking free from a past that was never yours to carry. It is a story for anyone who has ever had to rebuild themselves after devastation and for those who believe that even in the darkest of stories, there is still light to be found.

Autorenporträt
Claire Smith is an emerging voice in the world of psychological thrillers and suspense fiction. With a talent for weaving hauntingly atmospheric stories, Claire explores the darker corners of human nature, small-town secrets, and the consequences of silence. Her debut novel, No One Believed Her: A Teenage Girl's Disappearance and the Killer Next Door, has captivated readers with its gripping twists and emotionally charged narrative, shining a spotlight on the fragile veneer of suburban perfection. Growing up in a small town herself, Claire draws inspiration from her own experiences living in tight-knit communities where everyone has something to hide. Her fascination with true crime stories and human psychology fuels her storytelling, as she masterfully blends the psychological tension of Gillian Flynn with the relatable drama of Liane Moriarty. When Claire isn't crafting chilling mysteries, she enjoys exploring hidden hiking trails, sipping coffee while poring over true crime documentaries, and spending time with her rescue dog, Max. She believes that stories have the power to not only entertain but also challenge societal norms, making readers question what they think they know about the world around them. Claire lives in the countryside with her husband, Max, and an ever-growing collection of crime novels. No One Believed Her is the first of many planned novels exploring the interplay of fear, guilt, and survival in the face of tragedy.
