It's a hard job, but somebody's got to kill them.
Saffy Huntley-Oliver is an intelligent and glamorous socialite; she also happens to be a proficient serial killer. For the past 15 years, she's hunted down and dispatched rapists, murderers, domestic abusers—bad men all. But leading a double life has left her lonely—dating's tough when your boyfriend might turn out to be your next victim.
Saffy thinks she's finally found a truly good man in Jonathan Desrosiers, a true-crime podcaster who's amassed legions of die-hard fans for cracking cold cases and bringing justice to victims.
When a decapitated body shows up on Jon's doorstep the morning after his wife leaves him, he becomes the chief suspect for a murder he insists he didn't commit. Saffy's crush becomes an obsession as she orchestrates a meet-cute and volunteers to help Jon clear his name, using every trick up her sleeve to find the real killer and get her man—no matter the cost.
Darkly comic and addictively readable, Bad Men is a wild romp of a feminist thriller that asks if even a serial killer can have a happily ever after.

Meet Saffy Huntley-Oliver, socialite, former model, and attentive older sister. Saffy is also a serial killer, targeting men she considers to be "bad." A self-diagnosed sociopath, Saffy struggles with maintaining relationships with anyone other than her sister Susie. When she finds herself crushing hard on true-crime podcaster Jonathan, she doesn't know what to do. After a garbage bag containing a dead body is dumped on Jon's front steps, he becomes the prime suspect in the murder. Knowing that Jon will need help clearing his name, Saffy plots to meet him and insinuate herself into his life. Soon, she is investigating a murder, planning her next kill, and falling in love. Can she keep her secret and get her man? Relationship fiction author Cohen's (After the Fall, 2017) first feminist thriller is unique, featuring a protagonist readers will love to hate and a story with plenty of twists. The mystery element isn't the book's strongest pull; it's Saffy, a character you won't want to leave nor soon forget, who makes the book a bloody good read.COPYRIGHT(2024) Booklist, ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.
