A Good Marriage — Kimberly McCreight, 432 pages of betrayal & secrets

A Good Marriage* (Чудове подружжя) by Kimberly McCreight plunges readers into the depths of trust, betrayal, and the fragile façade of perfection. In this legal psychological thriller, Lizzy Kitsakis is pulled in by a call for help from her old college friend, Zack Grayson, who’s imprisoned in Rikers Island, accused of murdering his wife, Amanda. Despite the perfect image Zack and Amanda upheld publicly, Lizzy senses cracks — secrets, lies, and betrayals that stretch far deeper than infidelity. 

As Lizzy digs into what Zack claims about his marriage, she uncovers a web of picturesque façades in an elite Brooklyn neighborhood, social expectations, and hidden faults. Through courtroom drama, psychological tension, and moral ambiguity, A Good Marriage asks: What does the perfect marriage cost? When does love become a lie? And can trust survive suspicion? The narrative shifts perspectives — between victim, suspect, and observer — keeping readers off‑balance until the truth emerges.

For fans of courtroom intrigue, emotional suspense, and stories where the relationship is both the crime scene and the mystery, this book delivers. This hardcover Ukrainian edition, 432 pages, published by Vivat, is ideal for readers who love twisted secrets, complex characters, and that uneasy feeling that the ones we trust most may be hiding the darkest truths.
