Summary:

For fans of The Silent Patient and Gone Girl, a razor-sharp and Hitchcock-inspired psychological thriller about two ordinary women who make a dangerous pact to take revenge for each other after being pushed to the brink.

One dark evening on New York City’s Upper West Side, two strangers meet by chance. Over drinks, Amanda and Wendy realize they have much in common, especially loneliness and an intense desire for revenge against the men who destroyed their families. As they talk into the night, they come up with the perfect if you kill for me, I’ll kill for you.

In another part of the city, Ruth is home alone when the beautiful brownstone she shares with her husband, Scott, is invaded. She’s attacked by a man with piercing blue eyes, who disappears into the night. Will she ever be able to feel safe again while the blue-eyed stranger is out there?

Intricate, heart-racing, and from an author who “is the real deal” (Lee Child, #1 New York Times bestselling author), Kill for Me, Kill for You will keep you breathless until the final page.

 

My thoughts:

Let me tell you, the hype is real with this book! It might have been my first time reading anything by this author, but it certainly will not be the last. ⁣

I was completely drawn into this book from the get-go & flew through it, reading it in a matter of hours. It is so brilliantly plotted & the twists completely blindsided me, especially that final one! I can’t tell you how many times I gasped out loud reading this! This is the thriller you do not want to miss. It’s entertaining, smart & oh so clever! This is a book I know I will be rereading, not only because it’s so good but also because I want to know if I can possibly pick up on any clues the author might have left along the way. ⁣

I cannot recommend this book enough! And while I am waiting to see what comes next from this author, I’ll be picking up one of his backlist books!
