A Good Girl's Guide to Murder

Description

When a beloved schoolgirl’s murder is declared “solved,” the town of Little Kilton moves on—until Pippa Fitz-Adeleke, a sharp, determined student, decides to reopen the case for her final project. As she interviews witnesses, revisits evidence, and follows unsettling leads, Pip discovers that the truth is messier than anyone admitted and that someone is actively working to keep certain secrets buried. Blending mystery, psychological tension, and coming-of-age stakes, the story explores how communities protect themselves, how narratives get shaped, and what it costs to pursue justice when the past refuses to stay still. With Holly Jackson’s fast, twist-forward storytelling and keen attention to character, this is a gripping read that turns a school assignment into a high-stakes investigation.
