Readers LOVE Thorn in My Side

‘Perfect for fans of a snarky narrative’ NetGalley reviewer

‘I absolutely loved it’ NetGalley reviewer

Sometimes, you can be your own worst enemy…

Rhiannon Lewis thought she finally had it all: thanks to the pandemic she’s had to keep a much lower profile but has found happiness with her fiance Rafael and his family. For once, she is surrounded by people who love her for who she is (or who they think she is).

After over 800 days without murdering anyone, the woman formerly known as the Sweetpea Killer thinks she might have finally turned over a new leaf.

That is until her soon-to-be sister-in-law has a run in with her abusive ex, and Rhiannon rediscovers her taste for revenge. This time, with a loving family in tow, the stakes are much higher. Wedded bliss and life as a normal person are finally within Rhiannon’s reach, but you can never keep a good serial killer down.

Can you?

Publisher Review

Praise for C.J. Skuse 'This darkly comic novel...has the potential to become a cult classic.' Daily Mail 'Filthy and funny... a compulsive read' Sunday Times 'This isn't a book for the squeamish or the faint-hearted ... think Bridget Jones meets American Psycho' Red 'Dark, depraved and devilishly delicious. A full throttle savage and satirical thriller' John Marrs, author of The One 'Hilarious, refreshing, dark and memorable. It doesn't disappoint, I loved it' Phoebe Morgan 'You MUST read this book especially if you like your (anti) heroes dirty-mouthed, deadly and dark, dark dark. ADORED IT' Fiona Cummins, author of Rattle 'Pitch dark, laugh-out-loud hilarious - the Sweetpea series is pure genius escapism' Susi Holliday 'Fascinating, intriguing and twist after twist in the tale' Suzy K Quinn 'Dark and wickedly funny, and as dry and acerbic as Fleabag, it's hard not to love Rhiannon Lewis' Claire Allan 'Sweetpea hits all the right buttons. A dark, twisted read about a female serial killer with dollops of humour, sarcasm and a lightweight approach...keeping you gripped and on the hook, both smiling and squirming.' Maxim Jakubowski, Lovereading 'Witty, vulgar, sweary, darkly funny, but enthralling - a must-read for thriller fans' My Weekly 'This book is OUTRAGEOUS' Compulsive Readers 'This anti-hero is psychotic without doubt, sexually voracious and incredibly funny' Shots magazine
