Perfect for fans of The Collective and We Begin at the End, this psychological thriller will make you question the nature of justice… and revenge.
The ten worst people in New York are dying, one after the other.
A late-night TV chat show feature, The Ten Worst People in New York, is the talk of the town. When a real estate mogul on the Ten Worst list jumps to his death, it could be a coincidence. But after a corrupt NYC councilor, also on the list, dies suspiciously, recently widowed Special FBI Agent Alex Bedford suspects foul play.
Young British filmmaker Jacob Felle arrives in New York to connect with his estranged sister, Elizabeth, and to reconcile a long-buried family trauma. But Alex and Jacob are on a collision course, and when Jacob becomes a suspect, the two find themselves in a race to unravel the mystery before even more people die. Both Alex and Jacob must confront their worst fears and put their lives on the line as they try to find the answer to two key questions:
Why are the killers targeting the ten worst list? And who will be next to die? Born in England, Matt Plass made a successful career first in education and then in business, traveling extensively across the world, and living for several years in Azerbaijan, Istanbul, and New York. Matt now resides in the UK, where he has a farmhouse on the edge of Dartmoor National Park, and a study overlooking the 600 trees he planted during the Covid pandemic. He regularly returns to America and considers New York a second home.
