Telepathy is an ability Arianna Miller has had her entire life. It is a gift that she and her sister have inherited from their mother but have been told to keep a secret from everyone, including Arianna's stepfather, Marshal. The only person outside her family that knows about the secret is her best friend, Rosy Mendez, who has kept the secret for years. Then on the first day of her senior year of high school, Arianna meets the town's miscreant, Evan Jackson, the son of the governor and high school principal, who she soon discovers shares the same unique ability as her. Evan has spent the majority of his life with his aunt and uncle, only coming home in the summertime, until an incident that happened when he was twelve caused his parents to keep him from returning. The last place he wanted to be was Harrison, Arizona, but after getting kicked out of his last boarding school, he was forced to return and confront his past. When their paths cross, the two suddenly feel an intense pull toward each other but are warned to stay away from each other due to a secret Arianna's "on again, off again" boyfriend, Jason Richardson, and Evan share. But how do you stay away from someone that has the same ability as you and your heart feels drawn to? Suddenly, the two find themselves entangled in a web of secrets and lies with their parents, with the new science teacher being at the center of it. A secret so big it will change Arianna's and Evan's lives forever.

‘Each time my mother laid a finger on me... it was another step into the jaws of hell. Her abuse, more so than any other, destroyed me. It was the ultimate betrayal.’

In the summer of 1937, with the Depression deep and World War II looming, a California triple murder stunned an already grim nation. After a frantic week-long manhunt for the killer, a suspect emerged, and his sensational trial captivated audiences from coast to coast. Justice was swift, and the condemned man was buried away with the horrifying story. But decades later, Pamela Everett, a lawyer and former journalist, starts digging, following up a cryptic comment her father once made about a tragedy in their past. Her journey is uniquely personal as she uncovers her family's secret history, but the investigation quickly takes unexpected turns into her professional wheelhouse. Everett unearths a truly historic legal case that included one of the earliest criminal profiles in the United States, the genesis of modern sex offender laws, and the last man sentenced to hang in California. Digging deeper and drawing on her experience with wrongful convictions, Everett then raises detailed and haunting questions about whether the authorities got the right man. Having revived the case to its rightful place in history, she leaves us with enduring concerns about the death penalty then and now. A journey chronicled through the mind of a lawyer and from the heart of a daughter, Little Shoes is both a captivating true crime story and a profoundly personal account of one family's struggle to cope with tragedy through the generations.
