Even though Lillian???s best friend calls it a ???situationship,??? Lillian is determined to lock Henry down???and she has a plan. She???ll 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 doesn???t quite anticipate is becoming a prime suspect in his murder case when he???s found dead. As Lillian grapples with the loss of her sort-of-boyfriend, she???s hit with another reckoning: That Henry had a long-term girlfriend he also left behind. Desperate to control the narrative, clear her name, and assume her rightful place as Henry???s mourning girlfriend, Lillian???s 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.
