How to Date a Killer
This psychological thriller interlaces romance, obsession, and mystery against the backdrop of high society and dark secrets. As deception unfolds and loyalties shatter, the lines blur between fiction and reality, forcing readers to question what is truth and what is merely a well-written lie.

As the killings escalate, and trust erodes, one question lingers-who is truly the hunter, and who is the hunted?

Just before he dies in her arms, he whispers: "The cipher is in the phone."

The real question, the only one that matters, the one that has fueled crime fiction - one of the most successful genres in history - is really quite simple. Whodunnit? |<>|Concluida
