Good Bad Girl

Eighty-year-old Edith, sharp-witted and defiant, finds herself unwillingly confined to a nursing home, but her spirit remains unbroken as she meticulously plots her escape. Among the staff is Patience, a young cleaner who, despite her own shrouded past, forms an unexpected bond with Edith, recognizing a kindred, rebellious soul. However, Patience harbors secrets, and her seemingly genuine connection with Edith is built on a foundation of lies. Meanwhile, Edith's estranged daughter, Clio, lives a life burdened by their unspoken history. Her world is about to be upended by an uninvited visitor, whose motives are far from benevolent. As past and present collide, these three women—each entangled in a web of deceit and suspicion—must navigate a complex mystery involving two murders, one victim, and an overwhelming lack of trust in each other. Alice Feeney masterfully weaves a chilling narrative of hidden truths, shocking betrayals, and the unbreakable, yet often destructive, bonds of family.
