"A love letter to Amy Dunne of Gone Girl." âOlivia Muenter, USA Today bestselling author of Such a Bad Influence and Little One

Gone Girl meets Big Swiss in this electric, binge-of-a-debut about a millennial antihero who seeks revenge on her ex-situationship with a hex, only for him to actually, literally die.
Lillian and Henry have been enjoying each otherâs company, especially in bed. Even though Lillianâs best friend calls it a âsituationship,â Lillian is determined to lock Henry downâand she has a plan. Sheâll be the best, most accommodating version of herself until he falls in love with her. But when Henry blindsides Lillian with a breakup, Lillian exacts revenge by performing a drunken hex on him.
Lillian expects Henry to come crawling back to her. What she doesnât quite anticipate is becoming a prime suspect in his murder case when heâs found dead. As Lillian grapples with the loss of her sort-of-boyfriend, sheâs hit with another reckoning: That Henry had a long-term girlfriend he also left behind.Â
Desperate to control the narrative, clear her name, and assume her rightful place as Henryâs mourning girlfriend, Lillianâs pursuit of the truth will throw her into a dangerous tailspin. A deliciously addictive novel that explores our darkest, most human impulses, A Good Person heralds Kirsten King as a striking new voice in the canon of celebrated fiction.
