A girl is found hiding in a secret room in a house being renovated after a terrible crime. For weeks she has survived by sneaking out at night, stealing food for herself and two dogs that are kept in the garden. She doesn't appear on any missing person's file, or match the DNA of any murder victim. Six years later, still unidentified, the same girl is living in a secure children's home with a new name, Evie Cormac, when she initiates a court case demanding the right to be released as an adult. Psychologist Cyrus Haven is sent to interview Evie and decide if she's ready to go free, but Evie Cormac is unlike he's anyone he's ever met. She's damaged, destructive, and self-hating, yet possessed of a gift, or a curse, that makes her both fascinating and dangerous to be with--the ability to tell when someone is lying. Soon he is embroiled in her unique and dangerous world, his life in utmost peril.

When psychologist Cyrus Haven meets the elusive Evie Cormac, they team up to help solve a murder. But what dark things are lurking in both of their pasts?
It's taken me a while to write this review manly because I wasn't totally sure what to say. Just like the book, I am in two halves about how I felt about it. On the one hand I liked the fact that the book very much sets up the mysterious Angel Face and the equally mysterious psychologist Cyrus Haven. Their relationship is explored well and we are given practically nothing about their pasts, something which I'm sure will be revealed in the forthcoming series. That said, I felt like as half of the story is focused on these two characters there wasn't really enough answers in this book to keep my interest peaked - I just got a little frustrated with it! The other half of this book is the murder of young figure skater Jodie which was interesting but I felt a little predictable for me, the outcome didn't particularly shock me and some threads were left unresolved which was disappointing.
I found the whole 'human lie detector' thing to be a little odd - the book strays into the supernatural in this element and I don't really think it needed to. With the two damaged main characters, questions about their pasts and the murder case they are both trying to solve I felt there was enough without needing this element as well. I felt it jarred too much with the gritty realness that the rest of the book was trying to portray.
Overall Good Girl, Bad Girl is indeed a book of two halves but I didn't really feel that it grabbed me enough with either concept and the supernatural element was a little jarring.
