Three women. One Killer.
Talking to strangers has never been more dangerous...

When the body of forty-four-year-old Karen Simmons is found abandoned in remote woodland, journalist Kiki Nunn is determined this will be the big break she so desperately needs.

Because she has a head start on all the other reporters. Just a week before Karen was killed, Kiki interviewed her about the highs and lows of mid-life romance. Karen told her all about kissing strangers on the beach under the stars, expensive meals, roses. About the scammers and the creeps...

While the police appear to be focusing on local suspects, Kiki sets out to write the definitive piece on one woman''s fatal search for love. But she will soon learn that the search for truth can be just as deadly...

A phenomenal, unputdownable standalone thriller from the author of the record-breaking Sunday Times bestseller and Richard & Judy Book Club pick The Widow.
