FINLAY DONOVAN IS KILLING IT

“Funny and smart, twisty and surprising–Finlay Donovan is a character to root for. This suspenseful romp made me laugh but also kept me on the edge of my seat with its many surprises. I can’t wait for the next book!”— Megan Miranda, New York Times bestselling author of The Girl from Widow Hills and The Last House Guest

Finlay Donovan, single mom and floundering author, is having a hard time. Her ex-husband went behind her back to fire the nanny, and this morning she’s had to send her four-year-old to school with hair duct-taped to her head after an incident with scissors. Making it to lunch with her literary agent is a minor victory, even though she hasn’t done any writing and her clothes are covered in something sticky.

As she’s discussing the plot of her latest crime novel over lunch, the conversation is misinterpreted by woman sitting nearby as that of a hitwoman offering her services to dispose of a “problem” husband. The woman slips Finlay a name and a promise of a large sum of cash, and when she discovers the woman’s husband is guilty of terrible actions, Finlay starts plotting something much bigger than her novel. She has a unique skill set—after all, she’s done the research, and she knows how to dispose of a body so it’s never found.
