Summary
Villanelle has always liked food that you have to work at. The kind that hides in shells and skins and flesh. The messy kind, too, that asks for balance, care, dedication. Pistachios, you know. Mandarins. Big, bursting bratwurst cooked in too much oil. Mangoes – the leather-skin beneath her teeth, juice down her neck, the stone that will slip from her hands like soap. Shellfish and spaghetti. Bouillabaisse. Lychee. Eve.

Summary
There was Eve in her mind’s eye – Villanelle couldn’t help but picture it, and wasn’t it a perfect picture? Sitting prim and poised in her blacks, hair down past her shoulders like Villanelle had told her. Smoothing her hand up and down the neck of her cello, head tilted over the strings as she beheld her instrument. How easily she owned it! How natural it was for her to hold the body of it between her knees with that gentle strength, that sensuous balance so Eve felt each note between her thighs and – Villanelle swore she felt it too.

Summary
Sometimes when they meet, it is only in passing. There are many of those.
Sometimes they are thrown together. A one-night stand, or a one-night murder; dead or gone before morning.
Sometimes, and these are the rarest – but they still happen, in infinity – they meet again. And again. And again.

Summary
Eve realizes she hasn’t heard her name, hasn’t really given it thought, since stepping into this space of nothings and somethings. Villanelle gives it to her like she has been hoarding it, delighting in the challenge of keeping it still on her tongue, cutting the inside of her mouth with it, loving the taste so much as to struggle between freeing it from the cage of her teeth — and swallowing.

Summary
Eve isn’t sure how she got here: living in the kind of town she swore she never would, suspended from her dream job as a homicide detective, locked in a dutiful loveless marriage, and obsessively chasing the one killer she isn’t allowed to catch.
When a mysterious woman moves in across the street, Eve finds a reprieve from her empty life. Villanelle becomes her new obsession; that is until, she disappears.
As Eve fights to find out what happened to her, questions arise about who really Villanelle was and what brought her into Eve’s life.Bookmarked by liraels
