Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
"As if Bridget Jones found herself in a Scream film. Murderously clever!" --Rupert Holmes, New York Times bestselling author of Murder Your Employer
" Fast-paced, twisty and great fun!" --Amy Tintera, New York Times bestselling author of Listen for the Lie
A clever and darkly hilarious thriller/romantic comedy about a young woman who must unmask a serial killer that everyone thinks is her, all before her best friend's wedding
Gwen Turner has made a bloody mess of her life. She recently broke up with the best man she's ever known for reasons even she can't admit to herself and quit a lucrative job to open her own coffee shop. To top it all off, her best friend is getting married and leaving her behind in singlehood.
Along with too much cheap wine and bad reality TV, Gwen turns to a dating app to help fill the void in her life. Swiping through the few eligible bachelors left in town, she spends her evenings out on one disastrous date after another. But when a string of murders suddenly occurs in her small coastal English city, she's shocked by the connection between each of the victims--they've all been on a date with her.
Before she knows what's happening, Gwen finds herself the main suspect in a serial killer's murderous spree, and the only way she can clear her name is to track down her former dates (even those that have ghosted her) and unmask a killer before it's too late.
"Originally published in the UK in 2023 by Head of Zeus, part of Bloomsbury Publishing Plc, as Don't Swipe Right"--Title page verso.
"Gwen Turner has made a bloody mess of her life. She's recently broken up with the best man she's ever known for reasons even she can't admit to herself, and quit a lucrative job in order to pursue her dreams of opening her own coffee shop that's quickly become a bit of a dull nightmare. To top it all off, her best friend is getting married, walking down the aisle and leaving her behind. Everyone seems to be growing up, and moving on without her. Along with too much cheap wine, and bad reality TV, Gwen turns to a dating app to help fill the void in her life. Swiping left and right on what few eligible bachelors there seem to be in town, spending her evenings out on one disastrous first date after another. But when a string of murders begin to happen in her small coastal English city, each of the victims have one thing in common: they've all been on a date with Gwen. Before Gwen knows what's happening, she finds herself the main suspect in a serial killer's murderous spree, and the only way she can clear her name is to track down her former dates (even those that have ghosted her) and unmask a killer before it's too late"-- Provided by publisher.
