<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"Originally published as Not bad people in Australia in 2019 by HarperCollins Australia"--Title page verso.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>A clever, compelling debut novel with a unique premise of what happens when three best friends engage in what seems to be a harmless act, but instead results in tragedy, leading the women to confront buried resentments, shattering secrets, dark lies, and the moral consequences that could alter their lives forever.</p><p><em>Three friends, thirty years of shared secrets, one impulsive gesture...and a terrible accident. </em><em>When friendship goes bad, someone has to pay.</em></p><p>It's New Year's Eve. Three thirty-something women--Aimee, Melinda and Lou--best friends for decades, let off sky lanterns filled with resolutions: for meaning, for freedom, for money. As the glowing paper bags float away, there's a bright flare in the distance. It could be a sign of luck--or the start of a complete nightmare that will upend their friendships, families, and careers.</p><p>The day after their ceremony, the newspapers report a small plane crash--two victims pulled from the wreckage, one a young boy. Were they responsible? Aimee thinks they are, Melinda won't accept it, and Lou has problems of her own. It's a toxic recipe for guilt trips, shame, obsession, blackmail, and power games.</p><p>They're not bad people. But desperate times call for desperate measures.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br><p><strong>Three friends, thirty years of shared secrets, one impulsive gesture . . . and a terrible accident.
