 WINNER OF THE CRIME WRITERS' ASSOCIATION GOLD DAGGER AWARD FOR BEST CRIME NOVEL OF 2020

Don't miss the next electrifying Cyrus Haven thriller - When She Was Good, the Richard & Judy Book Club Pick for Summer 2021, is out now.

'A gripping and eerie read. You won't be able to look away' Karin Slaughter, #1 international bestselling author

__________

The girl with no past.

Six years ago, Evie Cormac was discovered, filthy and half-starved, hiding in a secret room in the aftermath of a shocking crime. Now approaching adulthood, Evie is damaged, self-destructive and has never revealed her true identity.

The boy who survived.

Forensic psychologist Cyrus Haven, a man haunted by his own past, is investigating the death of champion figure-skater Jodie Sheehan. When Cyrus is called upon to assess Evie, she threatens to disrupt the case and destroy his ordered life. Because Evie has a unique and dangerous gift - she knows when someone is lying. And nobody is telling the truth.

Good Girl, Bad Girl is an unnerving psychological thriller from one of the greatest crime writers of today.

Critic reviews

'Haunting . . . Robotham expertly raises the tension as the action hurtles toward the devastating climax. Readers will hope the complex Cyrus will return for an encore.'
Explosive . . . This sensitive, suspenseful mystery firmly establishes Robotham in the top ranks of psychological-thriller writers. And it cries out for a sequel
'It's the careful and often poignant interplay between Cyrus and Evie that elevates this consistently stellar yarn . . . Robotham is a master plotter at the top of his form, and readers will surely hope to see more of his complicated new characters'
An extraordinary exploration of emotional damage, full of humour and humanity

Michael Robotham always writes good books! I wish I haven't read them all so I could read them again! Great storyline.

Another good one from the author

I love this author and was not disappointed. This is a good meaty thriller. I imagine that it is being set up as a series as there were plenty of threads left hanging suggesting a follow-up. I always enjoy the psychological component to this authors books and felt it was very strong in this story. My only issue was the narrator's voice for Evie I think it's very hard for a man to convincingly convey the voice of a teenage girl it just sounded silly and camp and this did slightly spoil my overall enjoyment.

Great listen twisty thriller

Michael Robotham creates interesting stories and tells them very well. The characters as well as the story in this one involved me in a story very well told

Interesting angle on the crime fiction genre very well told

In my humble opinion what sets Michael Robotham apart from so many other crime writers is his ability to add laugh-out-loud humour to the dialogue without detracting from the really dark storylines. The Joe O'Loughlin series has a really entertaining and memorable humorous thread running through all the books largely thanks to the dialogue of Vincent Ruiz. This book lacks humour. Cyrus Haven is quite a dull lead character. Evie Cormac has potential but her backstory, lie-detecting superpower and repetitive bouts of mistrust of everything that Cyrus does is forced and becomes quite irritating. I really enjoy Michael Robotham books so I hope the series gets better as it goes on and the author exercises his superpower, humorous dialogue.

Good but misses the humour of the Vincent Ruiz
