'Twist after twist, secret after secret, she keeps you teetering on the edge of trust. Every page demands your attention. And that ending? Absolute mic drop' 5* READER REVIEW
She loves her husband.
But she might love their house more.
Jill and Ted adore their New York brownstone the way others adore their children. Styled to perfection, they have carefully made every inch of it their own. It reflects who they are. It is the stuff of glossy magazines and real-estate dreams. It is their sanctuary . . .
So when Ted’s inheritance runs out and he makes a bad investment, they panic. How can they lose their beloved home and enviable lifestyle? Being poor is not an option.
The answer is obvious. Or at least, it is obvious to Jill and Ted. The death of one family member could solve all their problems. Together, they can get away with murder.
As long as they love each other. As long as they trust each other. As long as neither makes a mistake.

‘Getting Away With Murder is one of those brilliantly gripping thrillers you just cannot stop reading. Unfolding in layers it builds to form a compelling and claustrophobic moral dilemma. I was hooked.’ * JENNIE GODFREY, No.1 Sunday Times bestseller of The List of Suspicious Things *
‘Shari Lapena is far and away one of the best psychological thriller writers in the world today and an absolute auto read author for me. She is never afraid to take risks, never formulaic and always intensely bingeable. I love her.’ * LISA JEWELL, No.1 Sunday Times bestseller of Don’t Let Him In *
‘A chilling and deadly whydunit. Nobody gets beneath the skin of their characters like Shari Lapena, and she does it unflinchingly and with impeccable flair in this sharp, gripping thriller. GETTING AWAY WITH MURDER deftly reveals our deepest, darkest impulses as it asks: when money is the motive, is anyone really who you think they are?’ * GILLY MACMILLAN *

‘Wickedly fun, glamourous and chilling. Shari Lapena flips the script masterfully yet retains her trademark twists and killer ending’ * Chris Whitaker *
‘How does Shari Lapena get better and better with each book? I adored this tale of an adoring couple living in their luxury mansion who run out of money and prepare to do the unthinkable to save themselves. Morally bankrupt and utterly selfish, I found myself rooting for them every step of the way.
What does that make me? Splendidly entertaining, full of morally dubious characters, I could not have loved this more.’
'It’s no mean feat to get the reader rooting for a pair of heartless killers, but root you will - with every tense, uncomfortable, thrilling step of Jill and Ted’s criminal journey. Another cracking read from Shari.' * LOUISE CANDLISH, Sunday Times bestselling author of Our House *
'Tense, claustrophobic and relentlessly paced, this is a wickedly fun read. I couldn’t put it down.' * MARY WATSON, Sunday Times & No.1 Irish Times bestselling author of The Cleaner *
