Am I a murderer? You tell me . . .

Lucy Chase can’t remember anything about the night her best friend was murdered.
Lucky her, you’re probably thinking. Who would want that to be their last memory of someone they love?
But for Lucy, it’s become an issue.

Because everyone thinks she did it.

But that was five years ago, and Lucy has put it all behind her. Or at least, she thought she had, until an interfering yet not bad-looking podcaster offers her the opportunity to join his investigation into the night she forgot.

On the one hand, if she’s a murderer, it's probably better to know – right? On the other, if she didn’t do it, she’ll be putting herself back in the sights of the person who did.

And either way, if you’ve already killed once, what’s to stop you from doing it again?

Get ready to be obsessed with this funny and thrilling new murder mystery, perfect for fans of MURDER IN THE FAMILY by Cara Hunter, NONE OF THIS IS TRUE by Lisa Jewell, and HOW TO KILL YOUR FAMILY by Bella Mackie.
