About the book
Fox and Hazel’s to-do list:
- Homework
- Housework
- Homicide?
Fox and Hazel just want a normal life: two kids, a beautiful house, and the occasional date night murdering people who deserve it. Yet having it all is hard when you want to kill bad men but raise good kids.
With a school mum tyrant on Hazel’s case – and a botched kill leaving Fox with serious performance anxiety – their midlife crisis is spiralling. Therapy isn’t helping, and bullet journaling has taken on a whole new meaning.
But when the couple accidentally draw a deadly mobster to their doorstep, they must pull it together – and fast. Because surviving suburbia is no longer just a challenge.
Now it’s a real fight for their family’s lives.
And it turns out, having it all starts with staying alive. . .
