Sometimes bad things happen to good people, so good people have to
do bad things. 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. 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 a stroller, 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 messes
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. In the style of Daisy
Darker and Rock Paper Scissors, Good Bad Girl is a thriller in
which nobody can be trusted and the twists come fast and furious.
