Pick Big Little Lies meets Presumed Innocent in this ?irresistible domestic drama? (Washington Post) from the New York Times bestselling author of Reconstructing Amelia, in which a woman's brutal murder reveals the perilous compromises some couples make?and the secrets they keep?in order to stay together. Lizzie Kitsakis is working late when she gets the call. Grueling hours are standard at elite law firms like Young & Crane, but they'd be easier to swallow if Lizzie was there voluntarily. Until recently, she'd been a happily underpaid federal prosecutor. That job and her brilliant, devoted husband Sam?she had everything she'd ever wanted. And then, suddenly, it all fell apart. No. That's a lie. It wasn't sudden, was it? Long ago the cracks in Lizzie's marriage had started to show. She was just good at averting her eyes. The last thing Lizzie needs right now is a call from an inmate at Rikers asking for help?even if Zach Grayson is an old friend. But Zach is desperate: his wife, Amanda, has been found dead at the bottom of the stairs in their Brooklyn brownstone. And Zach's the primary suspect. As Lizzie is drawn into the dark heart of idyllic Park Slope, she learns that Zach and Amanda weren't what they seemed?and that their friends, a close-knit group of fellow parents at the exclusive Brooklyn Country Day school, might be protecting troubling secrets of their own. In the end, she's left wondering not only whether her own marriage can be saved, but what it means to have a good marriage in the first place.

"A Good Marriage is a smart, provocative, insightful page-turner. I couldn't put it down." - Harlan Coben , author of The Boy from the Woods
"The characters look as if their lives are perfect, but their greatest skill is their ability to conceal the adultery, substance abuse and financial ruin percolating underneath....

"What makes a good marriage - in fact and fiction? Kimberly McCreight takes a gimlet-eyed attempt at answering that question in the irresistible domestic drama, A Good Marriage." - Washington Post
"If you were to transplant Big Little Lies (the TV series, not Liane Moriarty's book) from Monterey, California ... to Brooklyn's Park Slope, it would look a bit like Kimberly McCreight's A Good Marriage.... What lifts A Good Marriage above high-level chick-lit status is its legal-thriller aspect, which keeps the story churning urgently along." - Air Mail
"A Good Marriage is absolutely, positively riveting. I could not put this down! Kimberly McCreight has crafted a captivating, thrilling story that bolts out of the gate at a breakneck speed and never misses a step." - Taylor Jenkins Reid, author of Daisy Jones & The Six
"I loved A Good Marriage, a fast-paced pageturner that combines the complexity of a legal thriller with the emotional resonance of domestic suspense. You won't be able to put it down!" - Lisa Scottoline, author of Someone Knows

"McCreight is a master of misdirection-even if you've already read a lot of domestic thrillers, you'll be shocked by her jaw-dropping twists. As Lizzie edges closer to the truth of what happened in that expensive brownstone, her own struggles add extra depth to the story. Clear a spot next to Big Little Lies and The Couple Next Door-A Good Marriage is just as edgy and just as good."
- Apple Books
"A twisty combo of domestic suspense and legal drama, and a great escape." - AARP's "The Girlfriend"
McCreight burst onto the literary scene in 2013 with her first novel, RECONSTRUCTING AMELIA.... Many readers, like myself, have been waiting for lightning to strike twice for her, and I believe that time may have come with her latest release.... A GOOD MARRIAGE will make you question the very concept of marriage and how even the most insignificant secret could tear down the walls that couples put up to keep their secrets from everyone they know. These factors take what could have been a standard mystery and elevate it to top-notch thriller status. - Bookreporter.com
