The Good Girl: A Thrilling Suspense Novel from the author of Local Woman Missing

Over a million copies sold.

"A twisty, roller coaster ride of a debut. Fans of
Gone Girl will embrace this equally evocative tale." --Lisa Gardner, #1 New York Times bestselling author

"I've been following her for the past few days. I know where she buys her groceries, where she has her dry cleaning done, where she works. I don't know the color of her eyes or what they look like when she's scared. But I will."

One night, Mia Dennett enters a bar to meet her on-again, off-again boyfriend. But when he doesn't show, she unwisely leaves with an enigmatic stranger. At first Colin Thatcher seems like a safe one-night stand. But following Colin home will turn out to be the worst mistake of Mia's life.

When Colin decides to hide Mia in a secluded cabin in rural Minnesota instead of delivering her to his employers, Mia's mother, Eve, and detective Gabe Hoffman will stop at nothing to find them. But no one could have predicted the emotional entanglements that eventually cause this family's world to shatter.

An addictively suspenseful and tautly written thriller, The Good Girl is a propulsive debut that reveals how even in the perfect family, nothing is as it seems.

This was a different kind of read. I read the reviews, but I'm not one to go off other people's word, so read it anyway. I feel like this book was one that you needed to take in and just listen to (I did the audio version.) It was a story... a journey... sort of like the tortoise and the hare. You have to have patience and wait it out. In the end, there ARE answers, and those answers make you rethink the entire story. I'm glad I stuck it out. It was a good story, and one that makes you take a step back to think a little harder about people's intentions, motives, and truths.

Wow... Just wow. By the end of this book I was getting so tired and I just wanted it to be finished! Over with! Not me reading, but the crime, the solution of it all! I thought I was a me to figure it out but I didn't!

The last page took me by surprise and I'm like "this woman is CRAAAAAAZY"
