Etiquette for Lovers and Killers

Praise

“Replete with Emily Post–style epigraphs about etiquette, this hybrid mystery/romance hearkens back to Austen’s novels of refined drawing room intrigue while revealing, beneath smiles and witty banter, the underside of human nature. A romantic suspense novel bubbling with wit and the ever-present thrill of danger.” —Kirkus Reviews

“Sparkles with snazzy dialogue, vibrant characters, and clever period details.” —Booklist

“Etiquette for Lovers and Killers is an alluring and impressive debut. Anna Fitzgerald Healy brings a powerful new voice to the genre, seamlessly marrying polished prose and razor-sharp wit with snappy banter and a crackling romance. I was completely swept away.” —Elle Cosimano, New York Times bestselling author of Finlay Donovan is Killing It

“Wonderfully witty, bracingly irreverent and strangely seductive, Etiquette for Lovers and Killers is a dry martini twist on the murder mystery. Billie is a scandalous heroine who sets a new bar for female investigators—her journey from side character to lead is deliciously naughty.” —Beth Morrey, author of Isabella’s Not Dead

“Etiquette For Lovers and Killers is twisted in the best possible way. Booklover Billie enters the world of the ‘summer people’ in 1964 coastal Maine only to discover that beneath the white linen and silver trays lie some very impolite secrets. Full of cocktails, murder, and cheeky fun.” —Christina Lynch, author of Pony Confidential

“Graciously decline your plans for the evening, because you’ll be far too occupied with this delightfully twisty novel. Billie McCadie is Nancy Drew, if Nancy had been raised by Emily Post and Dorothy Parker. This novel is a romantic, murderous vacation resplendent with Jell-O salads and deliciously devious correspondence. Etiquette for Lovers and Killers is a politely mischievous love letter to language, manners, and murder.” —Julia Seales, bestselling author of A Most Agreeable Murder

“Biting, bubbly, and addictive—Etiquette for Lovers and Killers is a crisp glass of champagne overflowing in a vintage coupe.” —Joan O’Leary, author of forthcoming A Killer Wedding
