The bestselling author of My Lovely Wife takes on the most fraught domestic relationship of them all- sibling rivalry.
Samantha Downing currently lives in the Bay Area. Her debut novel,
My Lovely Wife, was a Richard and Judy Book Club pick and a Sunday
Times bestseller, and has been published in thirty languages. It
won a Dead Good Reader Award, and was shortlisted for four other
major awards- The CWA John Creasey Dagger, The Edgar Award for Best
First Novel, The ITW Thriller Award for Best First Novel and The
Macavity Award for Best First Mystery.
Her second novel, He Started It, was also a Sunday Times
bestseller. She has also written For Your Own Good and A Twisted
Love Story.
My Lovely Wife was one of my top books of 2019. He Started It is
even better! Following a dysfunctional-to put it mildly-bunch of
siblings on a bizarre and deadly road trip with their grandfather's
ashes, He Started It is deliciously twisted, laced with Downing's
trademark black humor and packed with one grisly twist after
another. I loved it. All hail the new Queen of the psycho
thriller!!
