Olivia Hodges used to do horrible things – back when she worked for a Spanish crime syndicate – but she fled that life and moved home to Australia, building a family in the hippie, hipster community of the Dandenong Ranges.
When a small-time criminal gang brings tragedy to her family, superstitious Olivia believes it's the universe demanding payment for her crimes. She wants revenge, but has to get it without adding to her karmic debt. So she creates situations where these bad men get themselves killed through their anger, ego and greed – all while trying to mislead the cops long enough to finish what she started.
'Fresh, fast, uniquely awesome. The Hitwoman's Guide to Reducing Household Debt is devilishly good.' Candice Fox
'The plot is wickedly clever—every time I thought I'd reached the climactic scene, the story just kept going, the action getting bigger, the stakes getting higher. Best of all, The Hitwoman's Guide to Reducing Household Debt is gleefully original. I don't think I've ever read anything else quite like it. I started having fun about halfway through the title and it just kept getting better until the final page. Simultaneously relatable and shocking, this book made me both giggle and gasp. Finally, a worthy successor to Dexter.' Jack Heath
'A winner on all fronts.' Dinuka McKenzie
'I love it. The writing is sharp, smart and suffused with an irresistible energy; the premise is fresh, and the characters larger than life from the word go. It's the kind of book that has you invested from the first page: the tone and pace is so snappy and confident, you just know you're in extremely safe and clever hands.' Anna Downes
