Publisher's Summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

Abigail is a proud member of the New America Baptist Church. Living miles away from the nearest town in South Carolina, she is safe from the depraved modern world.

She is a good daughter. A valued member of the community.

So when she is the sole survivor of a fire that burns her family's home to the ground, it seems like a tragic accident.

Until a surprising discovery is made: before the fire, Abigail let a stranger in.

Who was the stranger? What started the fire? And was the outside world always the threat - or did danger lurk within the community's walls?

Critic Reviews

"A stark, stunning and deeply affecting thriller. The Good Daughter takes a tender, chilling look at family and fear, the illusion of safety and the power of inner-resolve. I loved it." (Chris Whitaker)

"A powerful Southern Gothic thriller about the dangers of blind faith, the strength of women, and the deceptive nature of memory." (ANNA BAILEY)

"A powerful literary thriller charting a woman's complicated & brutal struggle to escape a puritanical modern-day cult. Immersive vividly-realised settings + beautiful prose. An unflinching spotlight on patriarchy, coercive control & the thorny paths to liberation." (PHILIPPA EAST)
