## He seems like the perfect partner. But perfection can be deadly.

From the #1 *New York Times* bestselling author of *The Housemaid*, **Freida McFadden** delivers another addictive, heart-racing psychological thriller that will keep you guessing until the final sentence.

### The Story:
Sydney Shaw has had terrible luck in the dating world. Like many singles in New York City, she has endured countless awful blind dates and ghostings. Then, she meets Tom.

Tom is everything Sydney ever wanted: charming, attentive, handsome, and an accomplished doctor. He treats her like royalty, and for the first time in years, Sydney feels safe.

**Until the bodies start turning up.**

A notorious serial killer is hunting young women across the city—women who all met their fate after dating a handsome stranger. As the police uncover disturbing clues, Sydney begins to notice subtle, chilling cracks in Tom’s story. The alibis that don’t quite add up. The sudden disappearances.
