When this book begins, it is with a shocking event that grabs your attention and doesn't let go. A baby was stolen from a stoller in the grocery story twenty years ago and now a woman has been murdered in a care home. Somehow the two crimes are linked. Told from multiple perspectives, Good Bad Girl is a puzzle novel through and through.
If you've read from Alice Feeney before, I think this book will be both familiar and unique to you. I have now read four of her titles and each one seems so distinct to me (Rock Paper Scissors, His & Hers, Daisy Darker, and this title). I really enjoyed the layers of mystery here that occurred simultaneously with nuanced character development- no one in this book is clearly good or bad. They are just women usually doing their best in challenging circumstances.
Since the puzzle of this book begins from the get-go, I'd recommend avoiding the synopsis and in depth reviews of the plot. Just jump in and enjoy!
