"A dark and devious literary suspense novel about a random encounter, sex, and a conversation that quickly turns to murder--a modern reimagining of Patricia Highsmith's classic Strangers on a Train--from the author of The Girl with a Clock for a Heart"--

"At an airport bar, Ted Severson meets Lily Kintner and soon they're sharing intimate details about themselves. Ted talks about his wife, Miranda, whom he's caught in a serious betrayal. Then the playful banter takes a turn when Ted says he'd like to kill his wife, and Lily says she'd like to help. Ted and Lily forge an unusual bond, but Lily has a history she's not sharing, a legacy of murder that stems from childhood. And Ted hides just how much he's become infatuated with Lily. But as Ted grows anxious about their scheme, they are pulled into a lethal game of cat and mouse, and more than one of them may be left dead when it's all over." -- page 4 of cover.
