Labeled a hit-and-run, Holly's husband passed before her eyes and the solution provided by Evan is more money than she's ever seen before, a beautiful home, and a safe neighborhood for her daughter. There's Holly, the bereft widow, Savannah, her daughter, Evan, the fixer, Andy, Holly's new screenplay writer neighbor, Libby, his nosy wife, and finally Jack, the millionaire producer. Written like a suburban drama, Good as Dead follows six people in the months following a terrible, fatal accident. What a twisted, twisted thriller Susan Walter has woven with Good as Dead. As carefully constructed lives begin to crumble, how far will everyone be willing to go to bury the truth and protect the people they love? Told from alternating points of view, Good as Dead draws together an unlikely group of people bound to one another by a crime, a cover-up, and compounding deceptions. Because Holly and Savannah aren’t the only ones in the neighborhood with something to hide. But when their sudden appearance in privileged Calabasas, California, piques the curiosity of neighbors, the price becomes greater than they imagined. Holly and her daughter, Savannah, will want for nothing, beginning with a luxury dream house-all for the price of their silence. Then a fixer for the high-powered guilty party approaches Holly with an offer she is in no position to refuse. In one violent moment, a hit-and-run accident turns Holly’s life upside down. It all starts with a promise from a stranger: We’ll take care of everything.
