''The most wildly entertaining novel you''ll read this year: suspenseful but funny, shocking yet stylish... and sophisticated, too - a story with cold blood in its veins and bright ideas in its head'' - A. J. Finn
There''s a dead body in my living room. I''ve not called the police because it was I who stabbed him. Seven times in all. The truth is, it''s surprisingly difficult to dispatch someone with a vegetable knife.
In case you''re wondering, the dead man is not my husband. I do resent our pitiful sex life and his woeful lack of ambition, but I wouldn''t murder him for it. Not yet, anyway.
Right now, I have far more pressing concerns: scheming to get my daughter into the perfect school; buying my dream home in Hampstead; and disposing of a corpse.
A woman''s work is never done. I''ve created the perfect life - and I''ll kill to keep it.
