Tenkill is one of those rare novels that feels at once high-octane and deeply thoughtful. Greta Seville, a brilliantly complex attorney, discovers a web of corruption within her own law firm and doesn’t quietly walk away—she ignites a fire. With nothing but stolen emails and a burning sense of justice, she assembles an unlikely cast of allies and sets her sights on a scandal centered around a hospital ironically named Tenkill.
Shannon Kirk’s prose is quick, clever, and full of bite. The dialogue sparkles, the pacing is fierce, and every character feels singular and alive—from Greta’s philosopher brother to the unnerving summer associate who may or may not be a psychopath. What elevates the story, though, is Greta herself: flawed, unapologetic, and relentlessly brave.
This is more than just a legal drama—it’s a story about conviction, risk, and the messy art of doing what’s right. Tenkill will appeal to fans of sharp female leads, morally grey battles, and thrillers that make you think while keeping your heart pounding.
With thanks to Shannon Kirk, the publisher and NetGalley for the ARC of this book.
