"Darkly funny and incredibly unique... this pacy, gripping read offers plenty of brilliant twists" Ravena Guron, bestselling author of This Book Kills. A jaw-dropping, page-turning YA thriller for fans of Killing Eve and How to Kill Your Family Olivia Austin refuses to be second best.

It's a lesson she teaches her boyfriend, Micah, by killing the girl he's having an affair with on an otherwise uneventful Friday night. It would be a perfect crime, too, had Olivia not left a tube of eyeliner at Lila Pepper's jelly-shoe-clad feet, an accidental signature that forces her into the sights of tenacious school journalist and Lila's best friend, Gwen Summers. With a myriad of nets closing in and the forbidden, slow-burning tension between Olivia and Gwen reaching boiling point, it becomes clear that desperate lengths are needed to tie things up - even if it means more bodies must fall.

Olivia Austin is an iconic anti-heroine in the best sociopathic tradition of Grace from How to Kill Your Family. She is morally twisted, utterly ruthless, an unreliable narrator and has a wild, take-no-prisoners approach to life which is very entertaining to be along for the ride with. Funny, sharp, dark and twisted writing.

Perfect for fans of This Book Kills by Ravena Guron and Til Death by Busayo Mataluku.
