I read his novel Eight Perfect Murders in the past and really enjoyed it.Ted Severson is flying back to the United States from London when he meets the beautiful Lily Kintner on the plane. He finds himself opening up to her about his problems. His wife, Miranda, is cheating on him with the contractor that is building their new home. Ted says he would like to kill his wife, and Lily agrees that she would like to help. Will they go through with it?This starts the wild and crazy ride this book is. I did not guess the ending of this book and was completely surprised by it so I don’t want to ruin it for others. The first part of the book alternates chapters in the present with Ted and in the past with Lily to lead up to current events. The second part of the book brings in different narrators to complete the story. The Kind Worth Killing was a great suspense thriller that kept me up too late at night reading as I wanted to see what would happen next. The twists were great. I felt like just when I would think I knew where the story was heading a new twist would come in and change the direction of the story. The twists all made sense in the story. I loved it!The Kind Worth Killing reminded me of the classic Hitchcock movie Strangers on a Train (I still need to read the classic Patricia Highsmith novel). I love Hitchcock movies and would so love to see this book made into a movie.I really want to talk about the ending of this book with someone. It was open ended and has definitely kept me thinking about it.Favorite Quote:”Truthfully, I don’t think murder is necessarily as bad as people make it out to be. Everyone dies. What difference does it make if a few bad apples get pushed along a little sooner than God intended? And your wife, for example, seems like the kind worth killing.”Book Source: Purchased from Amazon.com ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Riveting from beginning to end *by C***E on Reviewed in the United States on July 27, 2023* First book I’ve read in a long time that kept my attention completely. Lily Kintner is a god-tier character that blurs the lines of hero and villain. Loved getting inside her head. Page turner for sure. If you’re in a reading slump, read this. You won’t regret it. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Compelling read of psychological suspese that was an absolute thrill ride to read. An absolute must read! *by R***N on Reviewed in the United States on November 22, 2015* The story is about Ted Severson and Lily Kitner, who meet on a flight back to the US from London. Ted is distraught because he had recently caught his gorgeous wife, Miranda, cheating on him with their general contractor, Brad. Ted and Miranda live in Boston but are building a luxury home on the coast of southern Maine. Ted was going to surprise Miranda for a visit because she spends a great deal of time in Maine supervising the building of the house while it is being built. On his surprise visit, as he is approaching the home, he sees Miranda and Brad through the windows having sex in the kitchen. On the flight, Ted is drunkenly telling the story to Lily, a complete stranger (he thinks-which adds so much suspense to the story later) and in his inebriated state says he is so mad that he wants to kill Miranda. To his utter surprise, Lily responds by saying something along the lines of "Well why don't you just kill her then?" At first Ted is shocked but as Lily talks openly about her thoughts of people with morals like Miranda and of murdering people, Ted becomes convinced that he should kill Miranda. He doesn't want to divorce her and let her have half of his fortune after what she has done to him and Lily has put forth a pretty solid plan on murdering both Miranda and Brad to make it look like Brad is the killer. Lily would be Ted's alibi and, to Ted, it looks like all should go as planned.Ted and Lily meet a few times to make plans and then the plan should be put into action. However, things go awry. And I mean they ago crazy and the story goes all over the place, but not in a way that the reader can't follow the story. The author just does an excellent job of taking the storyline and flipping it on its head. This story goes everywhere. I can honestly say I had no idea what was going to happen next. I was compelled to keep listening because I had to know what was going to happen. I couldn't believe what I was reading! I kept saying to myself "Is this really happening?" and "Are they nuts?" I was all over the place with my feelings. It really got in my head because I just couldn't stop thinking about it. When I started this book, I really didn't have time to read it so I listened in pieces and then had to start over, but when I re-started it again a few days ago, I got hooked and listened to it pretty much straight through and got to a point where I just couldn't listen to it in my car anymore. So I brought it inside and listened until very late into the evening to the very end and had everything figured out.The chapters switch voices between Ted and Lily at first and then some major twists and turns take place and in the following two parts of the book, Lily and two other voices take over in the telling of the story. I don't want to say whose voices take over because that may lead into spoiler land. It was very well written and the major characters; Ted, Lily, and Miranda; were very well developed and I felt like I knew everything about them and what made each of them tick. The storyline flowed well but like I said, there were a few times that it was literally flipped on it's head. However, the twists and turns didn't make the story confusing, it added more suspense. This was a pure thrill ride that got into your head like an earworm and made you keep thinking about it over and over until you just couldn't stop and you had to know what was happening and just finish the darn story.This was one of the most thrilling/suspenseful novels that I have read in awhile! And I read a lot of mysteries! For a mystery to get 5 stars from me it really has to stand out. The author, Peter Swanson, is literally killing it in this novel of psychological suspense! I highly recommend it to any fan of this genre. In fact it is up for a Goodreads Choice Award. Definitely 5 stars!!
