The start of a brilliant new series for fans of Sara Paretsky, Megan Abbott and kick-ass heroines everywhere.
The explosive start to the Nikki Griffin series. If you devoured The Housemaid and love watching a smart, underestimated woman turn the tables, meet your next obsession.
By day, Nikki Griffin runs a quiet bookshop in California. There's a sleepy shop cat, loyal customers, and shelves stacked with stories about other people's secrets.
By night, she hunts men who hurt women.
Nikki is a private investigator with a strict moral code and a talent for making dangerous men underestimate her - right up until they realise their mistake. She drinks her whiskey neat, rides a motorcycle, and knows exactly how to win a fight.
When a powerful CEO hires her to follow a young woman accused of selling company secrets, it seems like routine surveillance. But nothing about this job is what it appears. The woman she's tailing is frightened. The CEO is hiding something. And when a body turns up, Nikki understands too late that she's stepped into a trap.
Now she's no longer just watching the shadows - she's in them.
As the lies unravel and the danger closes in, Nikki must decide how far she's willing to go for justice. Because in this world, the real monsters wear expensive suits and charming smiles.
Dark, razor-sharp and packed with tension, Save Me from Dangerous Men is perfect for readers who crave:
- morally complex female leads
- powerful men with secrets
- twisty investigations where nothing is what it seems
- the delicious satisfaction of watching a predator become prey
If you love the claustrophobic suspense and shocking reversals of The Housemaid, Nikki Griffin is the vigilante heroine you've been waiting for.
