About this title

Review:

Gripping, elegantly and stylishly written, and extremely hard to put down! (SOPHIE HANNAH)

'Chilling and hypnotically suspenseful ... could be an instant classic.' (LEE CHILD)

If your'e engaged to get married, by all means read something else. (CHRIS PAVONE)

An extraordinarily well-written tale of deceit and revenge told by a very gifted writer. Peter Swanson takes us on a harrowing journey through the hearts and minds of a cast of characters who seem normal on the outside, but are deliciously abnormal on the inside. (NELSON DEMILLE)

A work of lovely violence and graceful malevolence, The Kind Worth Killing slips into your life like a stiletto in the ribs. This is a book that launches Peter Swanson straight into the ranks of the killer elite, alongside Tana French, Gillian Flynn, and Lauren Beukes. He's the real deal. (JOE HILL)

Gone Girl on speed. (DAISY GOODWIN)

Revenge has rarely been served colder than in Swanson's exceptional thriller ... Few will be prepared for the crushing climax. (Publisher's Weekly)

A twisty tale of warring sociopaths [and] a good companion to similar stories by Laura Lippman and Gillian Flynn. (Booklist)

Revenge has rarely been served colder than in Swanson's exceptional thriller, his second standalone after 2013's The Girl With a Clock for a Heart ...With scalpel sharp prose, Swanson probes the nature of cold-blooded evil. Few will be prepared for the crushing climax. (Publisher's Weekly, stared review)

The Kind Worth Killing is a tightly plotted novel of betrayal set in London and Boston. (Irish Times)
