As a dedicated reader of mystery novels, I’m absolutely thrilled that “A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder” is coming to Netflix this week! Having grown up reading Agatha Christie and enjoying the latest suspenseful series on streaming platforms, I can confidently say that this adaptation of Holly Jackson’s book promises an engaging, captivating tale.

We shared the official synopsis for A Good Girls Guide to Murder, via Netflix: 

Five years ago, schoolgirl Andie Bell was murdered by her boyfriend Sal Singh. Case closed. The police know he did it. Everyone in town knows he did it. But smart and single minded Pip Fitz-Amobi isn’t so sure and she’s determined to prove it. And if Sal Singh isn’t a murderer and the real killer is still out there, how far will they go to keep Pip from the truth?

Poppy Cogan created the series for BBC iPlayer and Netflix.

1. Raiko Gohara, Jude Morgan-Collie, Yali Topol Margalith, Yasmin Al-Khudhairi, Henry Ashton, Carla Woodcock, Mathew Baynton, Gary Beadle, and Anna Maxwell Martin complete the cast, as stated by Netflix.

What to expect 

I’ve read Holly Jackson’s novel that served as the foundation for the first season of the upcoming series. Here’s a peek at some of the exciting elements you can look forward to.

As a curious gamer, I’m about to delve into a gripping tale. I’ll be stepping into the shoes of Pippa, a quick-witted teen who can’t help but probe mysteries that surround her. She’s haunted by the unsolved murder of Andie Bell, a fellow teenager, believed to have been killed five years ago by her boyfriend, Sal. Despite not having a close bond with Andie, Pippa has a personal stake in this case – she knew Sal through mutual acquaintances. Unlike many, she doubts his guilt and is determined to uncover the truth.

In other words, the show or series is expected to align closely with the content of the book by Jackson.

The book is filled with numerous unexpected developments and turns of events. I believed I had solved the mystery, only to discover I was mistaken. You may encounter the same surprise.

From the trailer preview, it’s clear that character Pippa will collaborate intimately with her partner, Ravi (who is not involved in criminal activities but rather a detective focusing on mysteries), as they are both younger siblings. Their goal is to uncover the truth behind Ravi’s brother’s predicament, specifically whether he is responsible for the death of Andie. However, it remains uncertain – will they manage to find the actual culprit? The series promises to reveal whether Sal is indeed guilty or not.

It’s intriguing to find out how this series unfolds and whether the finale of this season will pave the way for a second one. Two more installments in Jackson’s book collection remain: “Good Girl, Bad Blood” and “As Good As Dead.”

As a dedicated fan of crime novels and mystery shows, I’ve learned to be cautious when exploring the web during the airing of new seasons or the release of highly anticipated books. The allure of spoilers can be tempting, but as someone who values the thrill of solving a puzzle and the satisfaction of being surprised by plot twists, I strongly advise against giving in to that temptation.
