I'll Be the Monster

‘From the moment I read the opening of I'll Be the Monster I was gripped. An ingenious premise, backed up with pitch-perfect dialogue, arresting scenes and a caustic humour... one of our most promising emerging writers’ Sophie Mackintosh, author of Cursed Bread

------------

A homicidal couple embarks on a luxury holiday to save their marriage.

After years of secrets and self-restraint, they've reached breaking point. But three days into the trip, they run into Benny, an acquaintance from their Cambridge days. And Benny is desperate to reminisce about a time—and a person—they would rather forget.

Darkly funny and razor-sharp, I'll Be the Monster follows a dangerous game of cat and mouse as it plays out under the stifling heat of the Mediterranean sun. From a major new talent in literary fiction, this gripping debut is a love story about the worst people you know—and of what happens when a change of heart occurs too late.
