Description

What would you do if you thought your coworker was getting away with murder--literally?

Dolores dela Cruz has been dying to spot one in the wild, and he fits the mold perfectly: strangler gloves, calculated charm, dashing good looks that give a leg up in any field . . . including fields of unmarked graves.

The new office temp is definitely a serial killer.

Jake Ripper finds a welcome distraction in his combative and enigmatic new coworker. He hasn't come across anyone as interesting as Dolores in a long time. But when mere curiosity evolves into a darkly romantic flirtation, Jake can't help but wonder if, finally, he's found someone who really sees him, skeletons in the closet and all.

Until Dolores asks Jake's help to dispose of a body . . .

A morbidly funny and emotionally resonant novel about the ways life--and love--can sneak up on us (no matter how much pepper spray we carry).

Critical Reviews

"This compelling blend of romance and mystery is beautifully written and utterly unique--let the games begin!"--Joanna Wallace, USA Today bestselling author of You'd Look Better as a Ghost

"The dual perspectives let readers see the inner workings of the characters and their relationship when fate pushes them together. Throughout the novel, there are fun references to classic horror, plus clever chapter titles. The story gets more complicated as it moves along, while the well-written banter between Dolores and Jake is enjoyable. A humorously gruesome love story with a murder in the mix."--Library Journal

"Posey lampoons the soullessness of corporate work in her irresistible debut. [She] tells the tale in bright, punchy chapters that alternate between Dolores's and Jake's perspectives, and populates their love story with a cast of charming weirdos. Fast and funny....It's a wickedly entertaining good time."--Publishers Weekly
