Praise for The Good Girl

Selected as one of the Top Ten General Fiction Books of 2014 by thebookbag.co.uk

'One of the trickiest, cleverest, most rewarding human interest crime tales of this year.' - Top 100 Amazon reviewer Katharine Kirby

'Kubica's powerful debut will encourage comparisons to Gone Girl...[but] this girl has heart' - Publishers Weekly starred review

'A twisty, roller coaster ride of a debut. Fans of Gone Girl will embrace this equally evocative tale' - Lisa Gardner

`Memorable and riveting' - Lovereading.co.uk

`As a debut, this is a stunning, well-written novel - Kubica is an author to watch.' - We Love This Book

'This psychological thriller gets right under your skin and leaves its mark. A tremendous read' - The Sun

`A complex tale of deceit, jealousy, fear and love played out against the bustling, bright lights of Chicago ... a stunning debut' - Crimethrillergirl.com

`If you love a dark mystery, The Good Girl will keep you entranced from the very first page to the end.

I can't wait for more from this talented writer' - Peterborough Evening Telegraph
