Good Girl, Bad Blood
by Jackson, Holly
After closing her first case, Pip Fitz-Amobi is determined to stay away from detective work, but when someone close to her goes missing, she has no choice but to start digging again. The police are dragging their feet, and the town is once again full of people who would prefer the truth stay buried. This sequel leans heavily into the tension of a ticking clock, forcing Pip to navigate a web of online anonymity and local corruption. The pacing is relentless, shifting from quiet, analytical investigative moments to high-stakes confrontations that feel genuinely dangerous. If you enjoy protagonists who use logic to dismantle small-town facades or if you appreciate stories where the investigation feels like a puzzle with real-world consequences, this is the perfect follow-up to spend a weekend with.
