Ratings14
Average rating3.6
She's looking for the perfect man. He's looking for the perfect victim.
Sydney Shaw, like every single woman in New York, has terrible luck with dating. She's seen it all: men who lie in their dating profile, men who stick her with the dinner bill, and worst of all, men who can't shut up about their mothers. But finally, she hits the jackpot.
Her new boyfriend is utterly perfect. He's charming, handsome, and works as a doctor at a local hospital. Sydney is swept off her feet.
Then the brutal murder of a young woman―the latest in a string of deaths across the coast―confounds police. The primary suspect? A mystery man who dates his victims before he kills them.
Sydney should feel safe. After all, she is dating the guy of her dreams. But she can't shake her own suspicions that the perfect man may not be as perfect as he seems. Because someone is watching her every move, and if she doesn't get to the truth, she'll be the killer's next victim...
A dark story about obsession and the things we'll do for love, #1 New York Times bestselling author Freida McFadden proves that crimes of passion are often the bloodiest…

Freida nearly got me this time. It took me a little longer than usual to figure out the plot twist. This was fascinating and garnered my attention, so I finished it quickly. The characters were well-developed, and the story was interesting. I believe if you are a fan of hers, you will enjoy it. If you are not already a fan, you should be.
Oh, it was good. It was sooooo good! I didn't guess the epic twist at the end... Did you?
There is a serial killer on the loose... You don't know who the suspect is and there are many all as plausible as the last....
I like Freida's writing. She weaves an uncomplicated thriller with twists. I'm rarely disappointed but I also don't go in expecting Shakespeare!
I loved it. I listened to the whole thing in one sitting.
4 stars!
Okay MISSSSS FRIEDA
