Synopsis
On a night flight from London to Boston, Ted Severson meets the mysterious Lily Kintner. Sharing one too many martinis, the strangers begin to play a game of truth, revealing intimate details about themselves. Ted talks about his marriage and his wife Miranda, who he’s sure is cheating on him. But their game turns dark when Ted jokes that he could kill Miranda for what she’s done. Lily, without missing a beat, says calmly, “I’d like to help.”
From there, Ted and Lily’s twisted bond grows stronger as they plot Miranda's demise, but soon these co-conspirators are embroiled in a game of cat-and-mouse--one they both cannot survive--with a shrewd and very determined detective on their tail.
My Review

My rating: 3 of 5 stars
3 1/2 Platypires for The Kind Worth Killing by Peter Swanson
This was a book club book for me and I'm glad to have read it. The novel is pretty twisted and a fast paced read which I enjoyed. It had quite a few unexpected surprises that I think readers would enjoy.
One of issues that I did have with this book is that there weren't really any likable characters. I guess it's hard to connect with sociopaths so that might be the issue. I also thought some of the so called "smart" characters did some dumb impulsive things but I guess it was to move the story forward.
Overall, I did like the book and would recommend it to fans of Dexter and Gone Girl.
