Coryell’s debut will have you captivated even as you groan along at Hannah’s poor decision-making. Aimless and unhappy, Hannah gets pulled deep into the true crime case of the moment – a serial killer case where the accused is a handsome lawyer. The two begin a correspondence, and once he’s acquitted, a romance. Is Hannah setting herself up for murder, or is she the one who can see the truth? Hannah is a hot mess, but you can’t help but hope it all works out for her – and what a ride she takes you on!
