Jane Hawkins, Unretired Serial Killer Wicked Fun

Jane Hawkins bakes cookies for the church fundraiser, compliments your new curtains, and knows exactly how long it takes to dissolve a body in lye.She's your friendly neighborhood widow - charming, chatty, and terrifyingly efficient when it comes to murder. Twenty years ago, Jane was the East Coast's most prolific serial killer. These days, she's still living on Cape Cod, trading corpses for cozy mysteries and bloodstains for book tours. Retirement has been... fine. A little dull. Very beige.But when a cocky true crime podcaster starts connecting the dots on her past, and a mysterious copycat starts reenacting her signature kills, Jane realizes she has a problem. Several, actually.Now she's stuck playing mentor to a man she should probably murder, tracking a killer who's clearly a fan but lacks finesse, and trying very hard not to fall back into old habits. Spoiler: She's not trying that hard.The bodies are piling up. The questions are getting uncomfortable. And Jane's golden years are looking increasingly... red.Wicked Fun by Dave Pasquantonio is a razor-sharp thriller for fans of dry martinis, dark secrets, and delightful sociopaths. If Jessica Fletcher had a body count and zero patience, her name would be Jane Hawkins.
