After pushing Greg off his sailboat, Jill and Ted assume they’ve executed the perfect crime—no body, no evidence, and a massive payout ahead. But their foolproof scheme quickly fractures under external pressure. As a relentless Coast Guard investigator suspects foul play, secret surveillance cameras and anonymous “I know what you did” text messages surface, shattering the couple’s mutual trust into a tailspin of paranoia, betrayal, and catastrophic choices.

“A deliciously dark, fast-paced thrill ride that proves Shari Lapena remains a reigning master of domestic psychological suspense.”

The Book Guide® Editor

Lapena shines by subverting standard “whodunnit” tropes into a tense “whydunit” and “how-they’ll-fail” thriller, placing readers directly inside the minds of the perpetrators as their glamorous brownstone becomes a pressure cooker of paranoia. Through crisp prose, multiple perspectives, and a web of opportunistic side characters, she delivers a dark morality tale about unchecked privilege—making Getting Away with Murder by Shari Lapena an intensely bingeable, suspense-filled page-turner that is absolutely worth reading.
