"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."
Born to a prominent Chicago judge and his stifled socialite
wife, Mia Dennett moves against the grain as a young inner-
city art teacher. One night, Mia enters a bar to meet her
on-again, off-again boyfriend. But when he doesn't show,
she unwisely leaves with an enigmatic stranger. With his
smooth moves and modest wit, 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.
Colin's job was to abduct Mia as part of a wild extortion
plot and deliver her to his employers. But the plan takes
an unexpected turn when Colin suddenly decides to hide Mia
in a secluded cabin in rural Minnesota, evading the police
and his deadly superiors. 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.
