Product DescriptionNew York Times bestsellerSwanson rips us from one startling plot twist to the next A true tour de force. -Lisa Gardner[A] multilayered mystery that brims with duplicity, betrayal and revenge. -USA TodayFrom the hugely talented author of The Kind Worth Killing comes a chilling tale of psychological suspense and an homage to the thriller genre tailor-made for fans: the story of a bookseller who finds himself at the center of an FBI investigation because a very clever killer has started using his list of fictions most ingenious murders.Years ago, bookseller and mystery aficionado Malcolm Kershaw compiled a list of the genres most unsolvable murders, those that are almost impossible to crack-which he titled Eight Perfect Murders-chosen from among the best of the best including Agatha Christies A. B. C. Murders, Patricia Highsmiths Strangers on a Train, Ira Levins Deathtrap, A. A. Milne's The Red House Mystery, Anthony Berkeley Cox's Malice Aforethought, James M. Cain's Double Indemnity, John D. MacDonald's The Drowner, and Donna Tartt's The Secret History.But no one is more surprised than Mal, now the owner of the Old Devils Bookstore in Boston, when an FBI agent comes knocking on his door one snowy day in February. Shes looking for information about a series of unsolved murders that look eerily similar to the killings on Mals old list. And the FBI agent isnt the only one interested in this bookseller who spends almost every night at home reading. The killer is out there, watching his every move-a diabolical threat who knows way too much about Mals personal history, especially the secrets hes never told anyone, even his recently deceased wife.To protect himself, Mal begins looking into possible suspects . . . and sees a killer in everyone around him. But Mal doesnt count on the investigation leaving a trail of death in its wake. Suddenly, a series of shocking twists leaves more victims dead-and the noose around Mals neck grows so tight he might never escape.ReviewEight Perfect Murders creates expectations it then subverts, presents suspects only to eliminate them, and in general has its own way with the tropes of the mystery thriller-including that genre mainstay, the unreliable narrator. - Wall Street JournalA devious whodunit - New York Times Book ReviewEngagingly original This [is a] multilayered mystery that brims with duplicity, betrayal and revenge-all bubbling slowly to the surface Swanson has a bent for revenge and murder.

With mounting tension and fraying nerves, it careens to the final stunning conclusion. A true tour de force. - Lisa GardnerEight Perfect Murders is an ever-unfolding puzzle Mal frequently confides in the reader, showing that he knows more than he is letting the FBI believe. But what exactly does Mal know, and what might he be guilty of? These questions will plague readers and follow them throughout the book. - San Francisco ChronicleFiendish good fun. - Anthony HorowitzClever and surprising Swanson rips us from one startling plot twist to the next.
