Description

'A must-read . . . Once you hop on this wild ride of a novel, you won't want to get off . . . With tart prose that tastes like sour candy, Kirsten King's debut is a home run' MARIE CLAIRE

'I adored this deliciously acidic, addictive novel' EMMA VAN STRAATEN, Women's Prize Discoveries-winning author of THIS IMMACULATE BODY

'Wild, wicked, and laugh out loud funny. Lillian is a bad person, but Kirsten King is a great writer' SARAH HARMAN, prize-winning author of ALL THE OTHER MOTHERS HATE ME

But then Henry actually ends up dead.

Desperate to control the narrative, clear her name, and assume her rightful place as Henry's mourning girlfriend, Lillian's pursuit of the truth will throw her into a dangerous tailspin, which just may just upend her life for good.
