About this listen

Two former serial killers trying to keep their past buried realize that old habits die hard in this “wildly original, razor-sharp thriller” (Chris Whitaker, New York Times bestselling author of All the Colors of the Dark).

“An invaluable manual that I return to again and again.”―Hugh Grant

I wasn't smashing the patriarchy; I was killing it. Literally.

Hazel and Fox are an ordinary married couple with a baby. Except for one small thing: they're murderers. Well, they used to be. They had it all. An enviable London lifestyle, five-star travels, and plenty of bad men to rid from the world. Then Hazel got pregnant.

Now, they’re just another mom-and-dad-and-baby. They gave up vigilante justice for life in the suburbs: arranged play dates instead of body disposals, diapers over daggers, mommy conversations instead of the sweet seduction right before a kill. Hazel finds her new life terribly dull. And the more she forces herself to play her monotonous, predictable role, the more she begins to feel that murderous itch again.

Meanwhile, Fox has really taken to being a father. Always the planner, he loves being five steps ahead of everyone and knowing exactly what’s coming around the bend. Plus, if anyone can understand Hazel needing one more kill, it’s Fox. But then Hazel kills someone without telling Fox. And when police show up at their door, Hazel realizes it will take everything she has to keep her family together.

Fun!

This was fun, a little more lighthearted than what I am used to as far as thrillers but I think that was the point. Great audiobook!

Out of this world! I am speechless at how good this book was!

My new favorite author and by far the very best narrator I have encountered, and I have listed to offer 200 audiobooks!

A story of love and friendship

This was a very entertaining story. It kept me engaging while challenging me to look at the relationships in my own life. It had a good amount of humor and truth. Happy for Haze and Fox.

Worth every minute

Georgia Tennant kills it reading as Haze. No notes 🔪
Of course, Asia’s writing makes for a delicious story to sink your teeth into. Loved it!

Awesome awesome awesome.

Completely great. So imaginative, fast paced, impossible to turn off, and I think Georgia’s narration is her best yet.

Just when you think you figured it out… you didn’t.

I loved this book! I enjoyed how it had a great story line but also had parts that made me laugh. The humor mixed in with the twists was “chefs kiss”.

Voice actors were amazing.

Great story with outstanding voice actors. Kept me interested in continuing listening which meant I needed to find tasks that worked well with audio books.

I personally really liked it.

The plot twists were solid, the narration is really good. I enjoyed the characters a lot, even if Haze got on my last nerve. lol. It’s really engaging, the author has a strong narrative voice. My favorite book so far this year.
