Good Girl, Bad Girl by Michael Robotham

 Michael Robotham is one of the greatest contemporary writers and I never fail to read his books anticipating the US release. Mr Robotham writes about fully fleshed out characters that you love. Good Girl, Bad Girl introduces us to a new featured character who just happens to be a a former student of my favorite Robotham character Joe O'Loughlin.

Cyrus Haven, a forensic psychologist is called in to evaluate a teen girls ability to go free as an adult. Evie Cormac  the teen's new name given to her since she won't tell her age or name is unknown and isn't in the DNA files. Evie, a fascinating character is not trusting of people since she is a human lie detector and knows when people are lying. Cyrus like Joe O'Loughlin is trying to heal the wounds and discover the truth about Evie which immersing himself in a murder to see justice done for the victim.

While visiting New Zealand two years ago, I bought my first Michael Robotham book Life or Death based on the recommendation of the book seller in the store I was in. I was blown way by this Australia writer's book and upon returning to the states bought and read all his other novels. You must also read his psychiatrist Joe O'Loughlin and Inspector Ruiz books. You can thank me later

 No one writes a better "pulls you in and rachets up the suspense" novel than Mr. Robotham.
