"Edgy and complex." --People, Best New Books
"A twisty and pacy thriller." --Nita Prose, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Maid series

A woman's brunch with friends quickly turns dark in this gripping thriller from New York Times bestselling author Lisa Unger.

Served Him Right follows Ana Blacksmith as she gathers her closest friends and her sister Vera for a brunch to celebrate her recent breakup from her boyfriend Paul. However, when shocking news about Paul arises, all eyes point to Ana, the angry ex with a bad reputation. Suspicion only intensifies after Ana's best friend becomes deathly ill post-brunch.

Yet, Ana isn't the only one with a motive against Paul. As the investigation unfolds, rumours of a secret network using ancient methods to achieve justice emerge. Vengeance may be sweet, but it can also be deadly. Ana and Vera are determined to uncover the truth before Ana takes the fall and their own long-buried history is exposed.
