She thinks love can kill you. It turns out she might be right. The dark and sexy new thriller from the author of The Next Girl and The Strangers We Know.

Harper Brown is an expert at picking locks, breaking her way out of car trunks, and talking her way out of trouble. She could run a masterclass on escaping relationships—her record for losing a guy is three minutes flat. She’s addicted to true crime podcasts and is the genius behind a micro-column called “How to not get murdered”.

After having her heart broken helping her ex follow his dreams, Harper has moved to Paris to fulfill hers. She’s talked her way into a job as an arts journalist, a stepping stone to her dream role as an investigative journalist. And she’ll do whatever it takes to get there. But then one night she meets the artist Noah X, and everything she thinks she knows is turned upside down.

Soon Harper finds herself entangled in a web of lies, hot on the trail of a murderer and the scoop of a lifetime. This is the story that could make her career—if the killer doesn’t catch her first.
