The Good Parents is the second full-length novel written by Joan London in 2008.

The book concerns an eighteen year old girl, Maya de Jong, who moves to Melbourne and becomes involved in a relationship with her boss. When Maya's parents come to Melbourne to stay with her, they find that Maya has disappeared[1]. London says of the role of parents with older children, "There's nothing much you can do, except wait and be there"[2].
