Loosened by cocktails and a wound he can't stop pressing, Ted admits that his wife is cheating on him — and that, some nights, he thinks he could kill her for it. To his surprise, Lily doesn't flinch. She calmly agrees that some people simply deserve to die, and offers to help him do it.\n\nWhat starts as an abstract game between two strangers becomes a meticulous plan, and then something far more dangerous. 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. Every chapter recalibrates who is manipulating whom, building toward a game of murder in which trusting the wrong person is the only truly fatal mistake.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kkfjhddwa1yebkm9bhnc9tck.jpg","LH9aT,_L?t%L_M?v.7xtOukso$s:",2015,"3.86",7,320,[87],{"id":88,"slug":89,"name":90},"01kkfjhddrz67f4y79e301r8ey","peter-swanson-tbik","Peter Swanson",[92,93,97,101,102,106],{"id":32,"name":33,"slug":34,"is_fiction":17},{"id":94,"name":95,"slug":96,"is_fiction":17},5,"Thriller","thriller",{"id":98,"name":99,"slug":100,"is_fiction":17},6,"Mystery","mystery",{"id":28,"name":29,"slug":30,"is_fiction":17},{"id":103,"name":104,"slug":105,"is_fiction":17},41,"Psychological Thriller","psychological-thriller",{"id":107,"name":108,"slug":109,"is_fiction":17},210,"Noir","noir",[111],{"id":112,"slug":113,"name":114,"position":115,"is_main_entry":17,"parent_id":7,"parent_slug":7,"parent_name":7},"01kkfjhdfa77fzhmx6sgxzkza2","henry-kimballlily-kintner-zm8g","Henry Kimball\u002FLily Kintner","1.00",{"pace":57,"complexity":7,"audience":60,"mood":117,"themes":120,"setting_period":7,"summary":79,"content_warnings":7},[63,62,118,119],"mysterious","gritty",[121,122,123],"unreliable-narrator","multiple-povs","morally-grey",{"id":125,"slug":126,"title":127,"description":128,"primary_cover_url":129,"cover_blurhash":130,"first_publish_year":131,"community_rating_avg":132,"community_rating_count":94,"page_count":133,"authors":134,"genres":139,"series":148,"enrichment":149},"01kkfjcwd9pyqkj99a7ytvn00d","the-chalk-man-p6rr","The Chalk Man","In the quiet English village of Anderbury, twelve-year-old Eddie Adams and his tight-knit group of friends invent a private code: chalk stick figures, each child drawing in their own colour to leave secret messages for the others.

Everyone knows the story: her boyfriend, Sal Singh, killed her and then took his own life. The case is closed. But Pippa Fitz-Amobi has never quite believed it. When she chooses the murder as the subject of her senior capstone project, she tells herself she is only reopening old questions for a school assignment.\n\nThe deeper Pip digs, the less the official version holds together. With the help of Ravi Singh, Sal's younger brother, who has spent years living under the weight of his brother's supposed guilt, she starts tracing the last hours of Andie's life through interviews, old messages, and secrets the town would rather keep buried. Someone notices. As anonymous threats begin to arrive, it becomes clear that the truth is still dangerous, and that the real killer may be much closer than anyone imagined.\n\nTold through Pip's project log, transcripts, and maps alongside the narrative, Holly Jackson's debut is a tightly plotted whodunit that helped define a wave of modern young-adult crime fiction. It is a story about the cost of certainty, the pull of an unsolved case, and how far an ordinary teenager will go to be sure she has found the truth.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kjz6w5vgmqycxdp0ef1n13tz.jpg","L29GR9xG0etRnis:aKR*2@Sf~Cw{","4.54",24,416,[686],{"id":687,"slug":688,"name":689},"01kjq708qaq6gwrvex7vbawj8b","holly-jackson-sfps","Holly Jackson",[691,692,693,694,695,699],{"id":28,"name":29,"slug":30,"is_fiction":17},{"id":98,"name":99,"slug":100,"is_fiction":17},{"id":94,"name":95,"slug":96,"is_fiction":17},{"id":32,"name":33,"slug":34,"is_fiction":17},{"id":696,"name":697,"slug":698,"is_fiction":17},16,"Young Adult","young-adult",{"id":700,"name":701,"slug":702,"is_fiction":17},17,"Children's Books","childrens",[704],{"id":705,"slug":706,"name":678,"position":115,"is_main_entry":17,"parent_id":7,"parent_slug":7,"parent_name":7},"01kjq708tq2w4nycb8n6dgczx3","a-good-girls-guide-to-murder-m9hd",{"pace":57,"complexity":7,"audience":708,"mood":709,"themes":710,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},"young_adult",[118,62,63],[],{"id":712,"slug":713,"title":714,"description":715,"primary_cover_url":716,"cover_blurhash":717,"first_publish_year":232,"community_rating_avg":718,"community_rating_count":719,"page_count":720,"authors":721,"genres":726,"series":732,"enrichment":733},"01kjq77dx08ykthbbb7jc7p80m","the-silent-patient-cfa9","The Silent Patient","Alicia Berenson's life looks perfect. A celebrated painter married to an in-demand fashion photographer, she lives in a grand house overlooking a park in one of London's most desirable neighbourhoods. Then, one evening, her husband Gabriel returns home late and Alicia shoots him five times in the face — and from that moment never speaks another word.\n\nHer refusal to explain, or even to talk, turns a domestic tragedy into a public sensation and hardens into an unsolvable mystery. Alicia is confined to the Grove, a secure forensic unit in North London, where she paints and stays silent. Theo Faber, a criminal psychotherapist who has been fascinated by her case for years, engineers a job at the unit and sets out to reach her, convinced that if he can only get Alicia to speak, he can uncover the truth of that night.\n\nTold through Theo's obsessive investigation and Alicia's own private diary, Alex Michaelides's debut is a tautly plotted psychological thriller that draws on Greek tragedy and builds to one of the genre's most talked-about twists.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01ksxn51w268j0at5kteg1gx1n.jpg","LXPPZCI:InRi_4xaV?V@S$ozahj[","3.95",21,338,[722],{"id":723,"slug":724,"name":725},"01kjq77dyksetajsedf6dp3qqw","alex-michaelides-vigb","Alex Michaelides",[727,728,729,730,731],{"id":28,"name":29,"slug":30,"is_fiction":17},{"id":32,"name":33,"slug":34,"is_fiction":17},{"id":94,"name":95,"slug":96,"is_fiction":17},{"id":98,"name":99,"slug":100,"is_fiction":17},{"id":103,"name":104,"slug":105,"is_fiction":17},[],{"pace":57,"complexity":7,"audience":60,"mood":734,"themes":735,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[63,118,62],[121],{"id":737,"slug":738,"title":739,"description":740,"primary_cover_url":741,"cover_blurhash":742,"first_publish_year":743,"community_rating_avg":744,"community_rating_count":696,"page_count":745,"authors":746,"genres":751,"series":758,"enrichment":759},"01kjq7te00e1c1w3h3vj67a7hn","gone-girl-a6u8","Gone Girl","On the morning of their fifth wedding anniversary, Amy Dunne disappears from the Missouri house she shares with her husband, Nick. There are signs of a struggle in the living room, and as the hours pass with no word, the police and a ravenous national media begin to circle. Nick, evasive and strangely composed under the cameras, quickly becomes the prime suspect in his wife's disappearance.\n\nGillian Flynn tells the story in two alternating voices. Nick narrates the investigation from the present as suspicion tightens around him, while Amy's diary traces the couple's courtship and the slow souring of their marriage. The two accounts refuse to line up, and the widening gap between them keeps the reader guessing about who is lying, who is telling the truth, and what really happened on the anniversary.\n\nBeneath the missing-person case, Gone Girl is a caustic anatomy of a modern marriage and the performances it demands. Flynn dissects the roles spouses play for each other and for the outside world, the machinery of a media spectacle, and the resentments that accumulate when two clever, image-conscious people stop being honest with each other. Sharp, cynical, and ruthlessly plotted around a pair of unreliable narrators, it became one of the defining psychological thrillers of its era.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01ktkx3dk6k3s6syphedc5mc2x.jpg?v=2f60cfe167","L35;,O~p%#-:MxIUM{Rj029GMxIV",2012,"4.02",486,[747],{"id":748,"slug":749,"name":750},"01kjq7te064746m1ayvtbsbyh4","gillian-flynn-liux","Gillian Flynn",[752,753,754,755,756,757],{"id":32,"name":33,"slug":34,"is_fiction":17},{"id":94,"name":95,"slug":96,"is_fiction":17},{"id":98,"name":99,"slug":100,"is_fiction":17},{"id":28,"name":29,"slug":30,"is_fiction":17},{"id":103,"name":104,"slug":105,"is_fiction":17},{"id":245,"name":246,"slug":247,"is_fiction":17},[],{"pace":57,"complexity":7,"audience":60,"mood":760,"themes":761,"setting_period":7,"summary":762,"content_warnings":7},[63,62],[121,154],"On their fifth wedding anniversary, Nick Dunne's wife, Amy, vanishes, leaving behind a trail of clues that suggest a struggle.

Police summon Langdon as an expert, but he quickly realizes he is himself a suspect. With the help of cryptologist Sophie Neveu—the dead man's estranged granddaughter—he flees into the Paris night, following a trail of clues hidden in the works of Leonardo da Vinci.\n\nWhat begins as a murder investigation opens onto a far older secret. The pair chase a chain of riddles that leads through art, history, and the coded traditions of a shadowy brotherhood, pursued both by the French police and by a devout, self-punishing assassin acting on orders he believes are holy. As the clues accumulate, Langdon and Sophie edge toward a revelation that a powerful institution has spent two thousand years trying to bury—one that could reshape how millions understand faith and history.\n\nA breathless overnight chase across Paris and London, The Da Vinci Code weaves cryptography, symbology, and religious history into a puzzle-driven thriller.

College is weeks away, the podcast that once thrilled her now feels like a burden, and the toll of her past cases has followed her home in ways she can barely admit. Then the messages start: an anonymous stalker leaving chalk figures and dead pigeons, asking a single chilling question. The police dismiss her fears, but Pip recognizes the pattern. It matches an old case she thought was long closed, and it is pointing straight at her.\n\nAs the threat closes in, Pip is forced to confront how far the justice she believes in has actually reached, and how much of herself she has lost chasing the truth for other people. This final book pushes her to a breaking point and asks what a good girl does when the system fails and the danger is personal.\n\nThe devastating conclusion to Holly Jackson's A Good Girl's Guide to Murder trilogy trades tidy whodunit for something rawer and more morally fraught. It is a darker, more intense read than the earlier books, closing Pip's arc with choices that leave no one, including the reader, entirely comfortable.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Fworks\u002F01\u002F01kjr6z62s19x7p1v3p5m1wzen.jpg","L48qNkae00-=-;ofIUax00of~WM_","4.50",14,464,[845,846],{"id":687,"slug":688,"name":689},{"id":847,"slug":848,"name":849},"01kkcrxqwsvyss408w4mxewyng","maria-carcamo-ramos-rhoe","María Cárcamo Ramos",[851,852,853,854,855],{"id":28,"name":29,"slug":30,"is_fiction":17},{"id":696,"name":697,"slug":698,"is_fiction":17},{"id":94,"name":95,"slug":96,"is_fiction":17},{"id":32,"name":33,"slug":34,"is_fiction":17},{"id":98,"name":99,"slug":100,"is_fiction":17},[857],{"id":705,"slug":706,"name":678,"position":858,"is_main_entry":17,"parent_id":7,"parent_slug":7,"parent_name":7},"3.00",{"pace":57,"complexity":7,"audience":708,"mood":860,"themes":861,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[63,62],[],[863],{"id":864,"slug":865,"title":866,"user":867,"work_id":4,"is_draft":16,"verified_reader":17,"featured":16,"body":874,"overall_rating":59,"depth":7,"momentum":7,"atmosphere":7,"craft":7,"impact":7,"spice":7,"spoiler_level":875,"locale":7,"feed_item_key":876,"like_count":14,"comment_count":14,"top_likers":877,"viewer_can_reply":16,"created_at":73,"updated_at":73},"01kxpwpg3v0as9x8q4e6cxvc4y","review-of-touch-of-evil-by-nadene","Review of \"Touch of Evil\" by nadene",{"id":868,"name":869,"username":870,"avatar_url":871,"is_system":16,"published_reviews_count":872,"books_read_count":873},692,"Nadene","nadene","https:\u002F\u002Flh3.googleusercontent.com\u002Fa\u002FACg8ocJagtEG0_WBr9w_-tRnbZi93QoXf9OelJQx_77YX1doLsOHefbv=s96-c",1825,1837,"I received this book for free in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.I have been looking forward to Emme and Bren’s story after obvious sexual tension between them in Flame and Fury. Having experienced the impressive writing of Cecy Robson on several occasions, I went into Touch of Evil with high expectations and she did not disappoint.\n\nEmme has always been the shy and quiet one among her sisters. Her compassionate nature complemented her gift of healing. However, she struggled with low self-esteem, which intensified as she watched her sisters find their mates and she remained single. She would do anything to have someone to call her own, but with her poor dating record, that may prove difficult.\n\nTouch of Evil revealed a side of Emme I never expected, bold, mighty and fierce. It goes to show one should never underestimate the quiet ones.\n\nI enjoyed reading Brenn’s POV. The statements spewing from his lips had me laughing for most of the story. I also had fun with the interactions between him and Emme. I thought they complemented each other. Despite seeing this funny side to him, there was a lot I still did not know about him. Mysterious and hot, that is Brenn for you. I can’t wait to unravel that mystery.\n\nEarlier, I mentioned the sexual tension between the main characters highlighted in Flame and Fury, well the reason for it came to light in this story.\nI had a wonderful time with this book. The action, mystery and suspense had me flipping the pages. My only complaint, I needed more of this couple.\n\nConclusion\u002FRecommendation\nIn Touch of Evil, Robson delivered a story which mixed action with humour, mystery and romance culminating into an addictive read.This review was originally posted on Totally Addicted to Reading","none","rv-01kxpwpg3v0as9x8q4e6cxvc4y",[]]
