Because Lily is not a bored socialite indulging a fantasy. She has killed before, she has her own reasons for everything she does, and the tidy scheme she and Ted are building has more moving parts — and more hidden players — than either of them will admit.\n\nA modern homage to Patricia Highsmith, Peter Swanson's The Kind Worth Killing is a coiled psychological thriller told through shifting, unreliable points of view.

Molly sees the world a little differently from other people — she takes language literally, misses social cues, and has relied since childhood on her late Gran's rules to navigate a world she finds bafflingly complicated. As long as everything is in its proper place, she is content.\n\nThen Molly lets herself into the suite of the wealthy, frequently unpleasant Mr. Black and finds him dead in his bed. Because she behaves nothing like people expect a witness to behave, and because she knows more about the hotel's guests and staff than she lets on, Molly quickly becomes the police's prime suspect. To clear her name, she will have to accept help from an unlikely group of allies and learn to tell the difference between the people who mean her well and those who don't.\n\nNita Prose's debut is a warm, twisty contemporary mystery with the comfort of a cozy and a genuinely original narrator.
