Sinopse

She supplies the goods and services that killers need. And in that line of work, the last thing you want is a dissatisfied customer . . . Hope Rippa may look like your average fashionista, but a dark secret bankrolls her luxury lifestyle. Although she might appear a legitimate businesswoman by day, after dark Hope serves as a personal shopper to some of Europe’s wealthiest murderers. You name it, she’ll find it—and charge a hefty sum for the convenience. She didn’t plan to marry one, though. Fifteen years ago, her engagement with prison chaplain Killian Glass ended after she discovered that he moonlighted as a murderer. Since then, their relationship has been strictly professional. In fact, he’s even her best client. Their arrangement works—that is, until Hope makes a mistake and Killian changes the rules. Now, a gruesome game of cat-and-mouse is about to be played in the never-ending night of Iceland’s northern winter . . . But who will come out on top?This literary thriller is perfect for fans of the TV Series Killing Eve and will keep you hooked right until the last page.  This book contains reference to drug use, violence, and sex.
