I didn't plan to fall in love with an accused serial killer. Nevertheless, my wrists and ankles are bound to a chair, and I can only blame myself. I strain at the ropes, take a deep breath, and prepare to die.

Hannah Wilson is embarrassingly unlucky in life and love. Her only comfort comes from the true crime forums she trawls, desperate for more news about the case of serial murders she's obsessed with. After all, she can't save herself from more disappointment, but maybe she can figure out who the killer is and save another woman from losing her life.

And then handsome lawyer William Thompson is arrested. And Hannah is so full of female rage about everything he's done and everything she's going through, that she decides to write him a series of angry letters. She just doesn't count on him writing back...

Each response from William is more surprising than the last. He listens. He cares. And for the first time, Hannah feels seen.

When a shocking twist gives Hannah the chance to see William, she can't resist meeting her pen pal to work out his secrets. But what does she really want him to be - innocent victim, or her own personal monster?

Love Letters to a Serial Killer is a surprising, original and deeply entertaining debut. Part thriller, part romance, part satire. Perfect for fans of Yellowface, You and How to Kill Your Family.

Review

They say a book should grab you from its opening line, and Tasha Coryell has taken that advice in spades in her debut... Fresh, insightful and wonderfully dry in tone, this is an impressively original debut. ― The Guardian

You won't stop laughing at Hannah's observations on adulthood, true crime, and modern dating (and also will probably feel just a tiny bit dragged). ― Glamour

What a ride. Arch, dark, original and so witty, Love Letters to a serial killer is a remarkable and gripping debut -- Sarah Pinborough ― No. 1 Sunday Times bestselling author of Insomnia

A clever, provocative satire about the kind of women who fall for violent men -- Pandora Sykes

A fascinating tale of fixation, littered with savage one-liners. Superb debut! -- Mandasue Heller ― million-copy-bestselling author of The Family

A deliciously dark tale that sucked me in from the off. It is a superbly refreshing read with a truly wonderful protagonist in Hannah who makes the most dreadful decisions at times and yet is so likeable, you can't help but root for her. I galloped through this book and can only say that readers are in for an absolute cracking read with an extremely satisfying conclusion. I for one, can't wait for more from this author. Soon. Please. -- Carol Wyer ― #1 bestselling author of An Eye for an Eye

Ooh, I do like a bit of dark humour and a less than perfect protagonist - and Tasha Coryell serves up both with great style... A pacy read with sparky one-liners and an irresistible set up... No spoilers here, but if you like your crime fiction delivered with whip-smart humour, you'll love this rollercoaster of a read. -- Jo Leevers ― bestselling author of BBC Radio 2 Book Club pick, Tell Me How This Ends

Coryell's engrossing bent comedy isn't afraid to delve into scathing and frank analyses of modern dating culture... classism, and serial killer fixation, while still being a thrilling read with twists throughout....Witty, shocking, and wild, this is a must-have mystery. ― Library Journal (starred review)

A character so relatable it hurt... I'm still thinking about that last twisted reveal. Be prepared to lose some sleep because this is a book you will read from beginning to end. -- Steena Holmes ― New York Times bestselling author of The Sister Under the Stairs
