Good People, the debut novel by Kat Lewis, is a sharp, darkly funny debut about race, identity, ambition, and the stories we tell ourselves about who we are. Raised by a Black family after being abandoned as a baby, Jo Tope—a white woman obsessed with achievement and belonging—believes success will unlock the life she was meant to have. But as her pursuit of a Rhodes Scholarship collides with alcoholism, privilege, and uncomfortable truths about herself, Jo is forced to confront what it really means to be a good person.
Good People will be published on April 27, 2027, by Simon & Schuster and is available for preorder now.
Lewis is a video game writer and professional Dungeons & Dragons game master who holds degrees in creative writing from Johns Hopkins University and the University of South Florida.
