On a night flight from London to Boston, Ted Severson meets the
stunning and mysterious Lily Kintner. Sharing one too many martinis, the
strangers begin to play a game of truth, revealing very intimate
details about themselves. Ted talks about his marriage that’s going
stale and his wife Miranda, who he’s sure is cheating on him. Ted and
his wife were a mismatch from the start—he the rich businessman, she the
artistic free spirit—a contrast that once inflamed their passion, but
has now become a cliché.But their game turns a little darker when Ted jokes that he could kill Miranda for what she’s done. Lily, without missing a beat, says calmly, “I’d like to help.” After all, some people are the kind worth killing, like a lying, stinking, cheating spouse. . . .
Back in Boston, Ted and Lily’s twisted bond grows stronger as they begin to plot Miranda's demise. But there are a few things about Lily’s past that she hasn’t shared with Ted, namely her experience in the art and craft of murder, a journey that began in her very precocious youth.
