'Araminta is one of the most daring and intriguing writers working today. This is a resonant
razor-laced and dangerously glittering novel' Gillian Flynn 'An absolutely thrilling tale
full of breathless cliffside terror and fresh feminist theory masked in tight propulsive
mystery. I devoured this book' Lisa Taddeo ********* If most men say they're one of the
good guys then why are so many women afraid to walk alone at night? Cole is the perfect
husband: a romantic supportive of his wife Mel's career keen to be a hands-on dad not a big
drinker. A good guy. So when Mel leaves him he's floored. She was lucky to be with a man like
him. Craving solitude he accepts a job on the coast and quickly settles into his new life
where he meets reclusive artist Lennie. Lennie has made the same move for similar reasons. She
is living in a crumbling cottage on the edge of a nearby cliff. It's an undeniably scary
location but sometimes you have to face your fears to get past them. As their relationship
develops two young women go missing while on a walk protesting gendered violence right by
where Cole and Lennie live. Finding themselves at the heart of a police investigation and media
frenzy it soon becomes clear that they don't know each other very well at all. This is what
happens when women have had enough . . . ********* 'A dark dazzling shock to the system.
One of the Good Guys is clever composed exciting and frightening' Chris Whitaker
'Scorching smart and soaked in feminist rage this is a suspense that stays with you long
after the last page' Ellery Lloyd 'It got me by the throat and wouldn't let go. It's creepy
thought-provoking compelling and so very relevant' Julie Cohen 'A mind-bending tour de
force. Araminta Hall has always been one of my favorite writers but what she has done here is
groundbreaking. This thriller is shocking twisted dark and absolutely on-point' Samantha
Downing 'A bold and on-point feminist thriller about gendered violence with Gone Girl
twistiness and narrator unreliability' Victoria Selman 'A dark original and
thought-provoking read. This book will hook you from the first page and keep you thinking long
after the last' Alice Feeney
