The stalker becomes the stalked.

How well do we really know those around us? Who can we trust? Who’s watching us? What dangers from the past might come back to haunt us?

B.A. Paris has done it again. In ‘When I Kill You’, she delivers another tense, gripping thriller that I simply couldn’t put down. In fact, the only times I’d recommend putting this book down are to eat or sleep… everything else can wait! I thought I had guessed the ending, but I couldn’t have been more wrong.

From the very first page, the story hooks you. With short, punchy chapters (Paris’s signature style) the tension steadily builds, leaving you constantly anticipating the characters’ next move. Subtle clues scattered throughout the story create a creeping sense that something is fundamentally wrong beneath the surface of everyday life.

The dual timeline gradually reveals and connects the protagonist’s past and present, while chilling snippets from the killer scattered throughout the book make you feel that danger is always close, even if it isn’t yet visible.

If you enjoy psychological thrillers that keep you second-guessing yourself and thinking “just one more chapter,” this is a must-read. But whatever you do… go into this one blind.

About the Book

Who is watching Nell Masters?

Nell Masters is certain someone is following her. The hairs on the back of her neck rise when she travels to and from work, there are silent calls to her office, and a huge bouquet of flowers arrives without a card. And Nell has a reason to be looking over her shoulder, because she has a secret that she’s hiding from everyone in her life, including her new partner, Alex. But Alex also has secrets of his own.

Fourteen years earlier, when Nell went by the name Elle Nugent, she witnessed a student, Bryony Sanders, getting into a stranger’s car. When Bryony was found murdered, Elle became obsessed with finding the person responsible. She was convinced she knew who it was and her fixation with Brett Parker, the man she accused, led her down a dangerous path …

Now, Nell tries to convince herself that this unnerving feeling of being watched is all in her mind. Has someone from her past discovered her new identity? Has the stalker become the stalked? Or is there something even more deadly at play?
