Description
A new, twisting thriller from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Teacher and The Housemaid!
She's looking for the perfect man. He's looking for the perfect victim.
Sydney Shaw, like every single woman in New York, has terrible luck with dating. She's seen it all: men who lie in their dating profile, men who stick her with the dinner bill, and worst of all, men who can't shut up about their mothers. But finally, she hits the jackpot.
Her new boyfriend is utterly perfect. He's charming, handsome, and works as a doctor at a local hospital. Sydney is swept off her feet.
Then the brutal murder of a young woman—the latest in a string of deaths across the coast—confounds police. The primary suspect? A mystery man who dates his victims before he kills them.
Sydney should feel safe. After all, she is dating the guy of her dreams. But she can't shake her own suspicions that the perfect man may not be as perfect as he seems. Because someone is watching her every move, and if she doesn't get to the truth, she'll be the killer's next victim...
A dark story about obsession and the things we'll do for love, #1 New York Times bestselling author Freida McFadden proves that crimes of passion are often the bloodiest…

2024 - What a year for Freida McFadden, The Teacher, The Housemaid Is Watching, Dead Med and now The Boyfriend. If you know another author as consistent and prolific as America’s fastest selling thriller writer then let please me know. I’m craving.
Sydney Shaw, a single woman in New York who’s had terrible luck with dating. She thinks she’s found Mr Right, until a brutal murder of a young woman puts everyone on edge. Police suspect the k*ller is dating his victims before he kills them.
WOW!
‘Crimes of passion are often the bloodiest…’ The Boyfriend is one of Freida’s darker books, expect threat, high tension, blood and paranoia as every man on the dating scene becomes a suspect.
Forget about turtles, high heels or controversial relationships, this is a pure k*ller thriller that taps deep into the fears of the potential next victim. The character perspectives are inspired and Freida once again delivers twists you’ll never see coming.
Impeccable, fast easy flowing, intricately plotted, plenty of humour, rising tension, threat and twist-after-twist-after-WTF-twist.
Up there with Freida’s very best books, another book of the year contender.
