Statutory Confession?
July 23, 2010 5:06 PM
Bookfilter: Trying to remember the name of this crime novel about a 17 year old girl who poisoned and eventually killed her talented sister for attention.
What I can remember is that the female 17 year old tries to develop a relationship with the male investigator, telling him that she's eighteen years old.
At the end, when they begin to suspect her, the female investigator wears a wire and elicits a confession, which they later realize is inadmissible because she's not 18.
She goes to jail, and in the end I think they discover that the mother knew all along that her daughter was poisoning her other daughter.
What is this book? Thanks!

That's absolutely Into the Woods, which does include the poisoning subplot.
