About this listen

I have a gift. I see people as ghosts before they die.

Of course, it helps that I'm the one killing them.

The night after her father's funeral, Claire meets Lucas in a bar. Lucas doesn't know it, but it's not a chance meeting. One thoughtless mistyped email has put him in the crosshairs of an extremely put-out serial killer. But before they make eye contact, before Claire lets him buy her a drink, even before she takes him home and carves him up into little pieces, something about that night is very wrong. Because someone is watching Claire. Someone who is about to discover her murderous little hobby.

The thing is, it's not sensible to tangle with a part-time serial killer, even one who is distracted by attending a weekly bereavement support group and trying to get her art career off the ground. Let the games begin...

Dexter meets Killing Eve in this superb thriller, perfect for fans of How To Kill Your Family and My Sister the Serial Killer.

Critic Reviews

'I absolutely loved this book. The combination of dark themes and black comedy is spot on.' - EMMA CURTIS

'If Bret Easton Ellis ever went to grief counselling, this would be just the kind of brilliant book he'd write.' - PHILIPPA EAST

Super dark and funny, wasn’t sure what this would be like but after ~20mins or so I was in stitches. This is so relatable and hilariously extreme. Amazing performance, her voice is incredible. Thank you!

I was in stitches! “..he doesn’t look that sorry..?”!!!

What an incredibly delicious storyline! I couldn’t get enough and Imogen Church gives a tantalising narration. I cannot believe this is a debut book it’s absolute Genius.

Remember Joanna Wallace’s name and hang on her every word for ever more.
