As Good As Dead
Pip Fitz-Amobi is ready to leave her small town behind and start college. But the past isn’t done with her yet. Though her viral true-crime podcast made her famous, it also made her a target. Online threats have become part of her daily life — until one anonymous message unsettles her more than the rest: Who will look for you when you’re the one who disappears? Soon, the threats turn real. Pip is being followed. Watched. Hunted. As she digs deeper, she uncovers chilling links between her stalker and a local serial killer convicted six years ago. Could the wrong man be behind bars? And if so, who is really out there? The police won’t listen. So Pip must investigate alone. But this time, she isn’t solving someone else’s murder. She’s fighting for her own life. In this explosive finale, secrets resurface, the town’s darkest truths come full circle, and Pip must face the terrifying possibility that she may not survive her final case.
About Author
Holly Jackson has revitalized the young adult mystery genre with her intricately plotted, contemporary thrillers that combine authentic teen voices with sophisticated crime storytelling. Her debut 'A Good Girl's Guide to Murder' launched an international phenomenon, spending years on bestseller lists and inspiring a television adaptation, while introducing protagonist Pip Fitz-Amobi who uses modern technology and true crime podcast techniques to solve cold cases. Jackson's background in English literature and linguistics informs her careful plotting and character development, with each novel featuring maps, transcripts, and multimedia elements that enhance the investigative narrative. The subsequent books in her trilogy—'Good Girl, Bad Blood' and 'As Good as Dead'—maintain the high stakes while exploring darker themes as her protagonist becomes increasingly entangled in the crimes she investigates. Jackson's success demonstrates the ongoing appeal of clever, puzzle-box mysteries for teen readers and her ability to modernize classic detective fiction structures for the digital age.
