Good Girl: A Detective Searches for a Killer... And a Lover

The first erotic thriller from Zoje Stage, USA Today bestselling author of Baby Teeth.

After joining the local BDSM community, a homicide detective's professional and personal lives come crashing together when someone within her kink circle dies under circumstances she alone knows to be suspicious.

Kat is a tenacious and compassionate homicide detective with the Shannopen, Pennsylvania PD. Her job keeps her busy, but she finds her personal life stalling. Why? It's too vanilla. She longs to explore her submissive side, and after joining the local BDSM community she soon befriends a young grad student who helps guide her into the kink scene. And fate is truly on Kat's side when she meets Drew, a Dom who seems like the ideal match.

Her professional and personal lives come crashing together, though, when someone within her kink circle dies under suspicious circumstances. Her colleagues think it's an accidental death by auto-asphyxiation—but Kat's certain it's a homicide. Aware of the victim's fetishes, she knows they would never engage in dangerous breath play.

Kat has concerns about damaging her professional reputation because of her connection to the BDSM community, but she's determined to solve the case. Then everything in her life grows more complicated: she learns the murder might not be a one-off, and at the same time is consumed by worry that Drew will give up on their D/s dynamic because of her lack of availability.

She wants it all—a career, hot sex, and love—but will she jeopardize everything by wanting too much?
