Oh this was a fun book and I never thought I'd say that about a novel where the main character kills people.
Claire has recently lost her father and upon receiving an email with a great offer in error which is rescinded, she targets Luke, the sender who pays for this accident with his life. We also learn that this is not her first kill.
She attends a grief group and when she meets one of the women there, she realises that killing Luke has opened a can of worms of sorts. Luke was involved in something concerning this woman and thus unravels a lot of people's secrets.
There was so much personality in this book and dark humour. Claire's inner monologue was hilarious. Combining this with a more serious side, flashbacks to Claire's childhood, it makes for a very entertaining read. If you like the TV show Dexter, you will enjoy this.
