Teddy Crutcher won Teacher of the Year at Belmont Academy. Everyone thinks he's brilliant.
Only you know the truth.
They all smile when he tells us his wife couldn't be more proud.
But no-one has seen her in a while.
They're impressed when the tragic death of a school parent doesn't distract him.
Even when rumours start to say it was murder.
You're sure Teddy is hiding something about what happened that day.
You're sure you can prove it.
But you didn't stop to think that when it comes to catching a killer, there's no place more dangerous than just one step behind . . .

An irresistibly dark tale of parents, pupils and poison: the American dream turned suburban nightmare
Dark, sly and delicious...totally original - and totally compelling
Wonderfully dark and twisty. I raced through it, desperate to know how it would end
I raced through this, and loved every twist and turn. Brilliant characterisation and ingenious plotting make it an absolute winner.
I have loved all of the books by Samantha Downing, and this classroom thriller deserves an A+. Original, dark and highly addictive
I'm a huge fan of Samantha Downing, who is masterful at creating diabolical characters and deliciously chilling plots. An absolutely terrific book!
Samantha Downing has achieved something so special in For Your Own Good. A story that is dark as night, sinister as hell, clever, twisting and downright fun
Samantha Downing serves up another cast of deliciously mendacious characters in an exclusive private school setting, where the deadly action drives a brilliantly tense, taut and twisty plot. I may never look at my coffee in the same way again
Entertaining as hell, with trademark Downing twistedness. I loved it.
A slick and chilling thriller, leading readers on a dark, sinuous journey through the halls of Belmont Academy-the type of place where you're never sure who to trust, or who to fear.
Twistier than a corkscrew and utterly original, For Your Own Good hooked me from the first page with its dark humour and no-let-up suspense
Wow! Samantha Downing has done it again. For Your Own Good is utterly compelling, deliciously dark, and with perfect pacing that will have you racing to find out how it ends. I absolutely loved it
A deliciously dark, fast-paced delight of a novel with a maybe-maybe-not villain you'll secretly be rooting for. Highly recommended
Downing's spare prose packs a wallop as she deftly ratchets up the suspense with every hairpin turn of this lean, mean, surprising, and utterly propulsive thriller
So dark and twisted, so deliciously evil, it'll not only make you frantically turn those pages to find out who's targeting whom, but the wry sense of humor will have you laughing out loud, too. Another phenomenal wild-ride of a read from one of the crime-writing community's most talent authors. Bet you'll never look at high school the same way again
For Your Own Good is a fresh take on the elite school thriller and the perfect page turner
Witty and macabre with a psycho teacher who is so real to me
Praise for Samantha Downing
We're calling it: My Lovely Wife is the most gripping psychological thriller of 2019... this book will keep you reading late into the night
One of my favourite thrillers of the year - I couldn't stop reading but didn't want it to end. Dark, chilling and compelling
Wow! My Lovely Wife is a stunner - full of twists, well-drawn characters, and riveting suspense
One of the best thrillers I've ever read
So beautifully and elegantly written . . . A great twist - I loved it
