The Good Girl by Fiona Neill; Things We Have in Common by Tasha Kavanagh; The Infidel Stain by MJ Carter; Death Is a Welcome Guest by Louise Welsh; Edith’s Diary, The Blunderer, Deep Water and The Tremor of Forgery by Patricia Highsmith
The latest novel from Fiona Neill, best known for her Slummy Mummy columns, is The Good Girl (Michael Joseph, £7.99), a stark morality tale about the perils of sexting. When a video showing 17-year-old student Romy giving her boyfriend a blow job goes viral, the ramifications are grimly easy to imagine. But Neill leaves the aftermath till the end, beginning instead with the months leading up to the incident – a period of domestic strife for Romy’s family, culminating in a move to the country that was supposed to restore order, and might well have done had their new neighbours not been sex therapists Wolf and Loveday.More
