The Boyfriend

Sydney Shapiro is worn down by New York City's brutal dating scene, a parade of liars, creeps, and disappointments, until she meets him. He's handsome, attentive, successful, almost impossibly perfect: the boyfriend she had given up hoping for. But across the city, women are turning up murdered, and police are hunting a charming serial killer who preys on the lonely. As small inconsistencies in her perfect boyfriend's story begin to surface, Sydney can't shake a terrifying question: is the man she's falling for too good to be true, in the deadliest possible way? From Freida McFadden, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Housemaid, comes a fast, fiendishly twisty psychological thriller about romance, danger, and the masks people wear. You may never trust a perfect first date again. Available now at Spindle & Spine Bookstore.
