Description
''Compelling, creepy and cool . . . a Thelma & Louise for our times''PAULA HAWKINS, author of The Girl on the Train''Fierce, fun, wild and enraging''CHRIS WHITAKER, author of All The Colours of the Dark''Razor-sharp writing, frenzied pace, twists and turns - prepare for impact!''BONNIE GARMUS, author of Lessons In Chemistry ''Pump this into my veins. A modern day Thelma & Louise for lesbians who make Das Kapital jokes''MADELEINE GRAY, author of Green DotDecisions were made: I made them. Violence was done: I did it. Crime scenes were fled: I fled them. People were hurt: I hurt them. Someone was loved: I loved them. Not everything I did was bad. Just most of it. A scholarship kid with straight As and massive potential, Evie Gordon always thought she was special, that she''d be someone. But after graduating from an elite university, she finds herself drowning in debt and working as a private tutor to the children of Los Angeles''s super-rich. Everything changes when Evie arrives at the Victor family''s lavish mansion for her weekly lesson to discover, not the bored teenager she excepted, but pure carnage: the bloody remains of Mr and Mrs Victor sullying their beautiful back garden, and a woman crying for help from within the walls of the house. Within moments, Evie and the woman go from bystanders to suspects to fugitives. Suddenly at the heart of a nation-wide manhunt, Evie finds that her mysterious companion, who refuses to speak, has quickly become the most important person in her upside-down life. Meanwhile, the press runs wild with Evie''s story - anointing her the new Charles Manson, a blood thirsty ninety-nine percenter looking to start a class war. Evie is - finally and disastrously - someone. Droll, dark and deeply insightful, Killer Potential is an edge-of-your-seat break-neck ride, a queer love story, and a darkly funny critique of the horrors of late capitalism and how the stories we''re sold about our potential can shape the course of our lives.
