Description

The multimillion-copy and New York Times bestseller B. A. Paris returns with a triumphant, unsettling next suspense novel, When I Kill You.

Who is watching Nell Masters?

Nell Masters is certain someone is following her. The hairs on the back of her neck rise when she travels to and from work, there are silent calls to her office, and a huge bouquet of flowers arrives without a card. And Nell has a reason to be looking over her shoulder, because she has a secret that she's hiding from everyone in her life, including her new partner, Alex. But Alex also has secrets of his own.

Fourteen years earlier, when Nell went by the name Elle Nugent, she witnessed a student, Bryony Sanders, getting into a stranger's car. When Bryony was found murdered, Elle became obsessed with finding the person responsible. She was convinced she knew who it was and her fixation with Brett Parker, the man she accused, led her down a dangerous path . . .

Now, Nell tries to convince herself that this unnerving feeling of being watched is all in her mind. Has someone from her past discovered her new identity? Has the stalker become the stalked? Or is there something even more deadly at play?

One of People's "Thrillers and Suspense Novels for Fans of His & Hers and Tell Me Lies"

"Unexpected plot twists, in both the past and the present, keep the tension high and the pages turning."--Kirkus Reviews

"This satisfyingly creepy novel is a solid addition to Paris's collection of nail-biters, including Behind Closed Doors and The Guest."--Library Journal

"Nell's flawed relatability will pull readers into her fight for resolution and survival as Paris seamlessly weaves dual timelines of Nell's past obsession and current threats with her stalker's chilling commentary."--Booklist

"If you are a fan of Freida McFadden and have not read B. A. Paris, you need to do so as soon as possible. Paris is the European Queen of the Domestic Thriller, and her latest is the perfect title to kick off your journey with her . . . a twisty domestic thriller and a brilliant read."--Book Reporter
