Kristina Riggle, the acclaimed author of Real Life & Liars,
returns with a thought-provoking novel inspired by real-life
events Seventeen-year-old Morgan Monetti shocks her parents and her
community with one simple act: She chooses to stand by the
man everyone else believes has exploited her—popular high
school teacher TJ Hill. Quietly walking across a crowded
courtroom to sit behind TJ, and not beside her parents, she
announces herself as the adult she believes herself to be. But her mother, Dinah, wants justice. Dinah is a fighter,
and she believes with all her heart and soul that TJ is a
man who took advantage of her daughter. He is a criminal who
should be brought to justice, no matter what the cost to his
family. Rain, TJ's wife, is shocked that her handsome, loving,
respected husband has been accused of a terrible crime. But
has her desperation to start a family closed her eyes to the
fault lines in her marriage? And can she face the painful
truths about herself and her husband? Told from the perspectives of these three remarkable women,
The Whole Golden World navigates the precarious territory
between childhood and adulthood, raising questions about
love and manipulation, marriage and motherhood, consent and
responsibility. It's a novel both shocking and unforgettable
in its power.
