“It’s playtime.”

Leela’s enemies are dying. They appear to be unrelated suicides, but she refuses to believe in mere coincidence. Someone is targeting these victims. But why?

A single clue emerges, leading her to believe these deaths are linked to a cover-up job she did when she worked PR for the tech goliath Jolvix. It involves a high-tech novelty weapon, shrouded in secrecy, one she’s legally forbidden from discussing with anyone—including the hungry writer publishing an exposé on Jolvix who’s itching to get the full scoop.

The body count is rising. And the further this deadly game goes, the more Leela becomes implicated as a possible suspect. To find the real killer, Leela must return to the sinister web of her former company and dive deep into the dark secrets buried in her past.

Because if she doesn’t find the serial killer soon, it’s game over for Leela, too.

The FMC is well written. Initially, there’s a sense of feeling bad for her. Then you get to “know” her…I’ve never hated a character that wasn’t the primary “bad guy” before. I’ve never had such loathing for the main character.

I’ve not read the rest of the series, so I don’t know if this how I’m supposed to feel about the character, or if she even appears in the other books. But the author did a great job of flipping the usual script.

Good story: hate the FMC

It turned a little silly after a while especially towards the end. I was disappointed with the tone.

Lots of “you think you know” who it is
