Publisher Description
Sometimes bad things happen to good people, so good people have to do bad things . . .
'An author you need to check out' – Harlan Coben, author of I Will Find You
From the author of His and Hers, now a major TV series produced by Jessica Chastain.
The Queen of Twists, bestselling author of Daisy Darker and Rock Paper Scissors Alice Feeney, returns with another gripping mystery filled with drama and her trademark surprises in Good Bad Girl.
Twenty years after a baby is stolen from her push-chair, a woman is murdered in a care home. The two crimes are somehow linked, and a good bad girl may be the key to discovering the truth.
Edith may have been tricked into a nursing home, but at eighty-years-young, she’s planning her escape. Patience works there, cleaning up mess and bonding with Edith, a kindred spirit. But Patience is lying to Edith about almost everything.
Edith’s own daughter, Clio, won’t speak to her. And someone new is about to knock on Clio’s door . . . and their intentions aren’t good.
With every reason to distrust each other, the women must solve a mystery with three suspects, two murders, and one victim. If they do, they might just find out what happened to the baby who disappeared, the mother who lost her, and the connections that bind them.

APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
Alice Feeney is among the most successful writers of thrillers in the world, with her knack for suspense making her a bestseller. But that is not her only talent. In Good Bad Girl Feeney draws portraits of flawed women who have acted in ways we might call unforgivable—but allows us to empathise with them all the same. Thus the book ends up being not only full of twists—though it is that, and they’re very effective—but also touching in its take on mothers and daughters, and regret. It is a tale of kidnap and murder, beginning with the disappearance of a baby from a supermarket, and as the reader learns how the four very different women’s lives and sorrows interconnect, they will want to know exactly what happened, and they will be desperate to know why.
Customer Reviews
Good. Enjoyed it
Good read but felt like end end was a bit rushed
A brilliant page-turner
I’m so sorry to have finished reading ‘Good Bad Girl’. The characters are so realistic - with faults and weaknesses that most of us can recognise in our own families - and the plot is very clever, with a surprising revelation towards the end. I must now buy another Alice Feeney book as I am truly addicted!
