Serial Killer Games

De: Kate Posey

Narrado por: Christian Leatherman, Dominique Salvacion

What would you do if you thought your coworker was getting away with murder—literally?

Dolores dela Cruz has been dying to spot one in the wild, and he fits the mold perfectly: strangler gloves, calculated charm, dashing good looks that give a leg up in any field . . . including fields of unmarked graves.

The new office temp is definitely a serial killer.

Jake Ripper finds a welcome distraction in his combative and enigmatic new coworker. He hasn’t come across anyone as interesting as Dolores in a long time. But when mere curiosity evolves into a darkly romantic flirtation, Jake can’t help but wonder if, finally, he’s found someone who really sees him, skeletons in the closet and all.

Until Dolores asks Jake’s help to dispose of a body . . .

A morbidly funny and emotionally resonant novel about the ways life—and love—can sneak up on us (no matter how much pepper spray we carry).

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Dolores dela Cruz has a problem. The new intern is sexy, mysterious, and, in Dolores's true-crime-podcast-informed opinion, probably a serial killer. And we’re sorry, but that is all of the plot you are getting because this book is a twisty, turn-y delight and we don’t want to rob you of a single surprise. Don’t read the reviews, don’t read the spoilers, and instead dive into this darkly comic novel that doesn’t take itself too seriously (did we mention the intern’s name is Jack Ripper?). Balancing humor and suspense, heat and hijinks, Dolores and Jack’s love story is perfect for anyone who is pretty sure that they could solve a murder if they just had the right partner in crime."—Oprah Daily

“This compelling blend of romance and mystery is beautifully written and utterly unique—let the games begin!”—Joanna Wallace, USA Today bestselling author of You’d Look Better as a Ghost

"The dual perspectives let readers see the inner workings of the characters and their relationship when fate pushes them together. Throughout the novel, there are fun references to classic horror, plus clever chapter titles. The story gets more complicated as it moves along, while the well-written banter between Dolores and Jake is enjoyable. A humorously gruesome love story with a murder in the mix."—Library Journal

"Posey lampoons the soullessness of corporate work in her irresistible debut. [She] tells the tale in bright, punchy chapters that alternate between Dolores’s and Jake’s perspectives, and populates their love story with a cast of charming weirdos. Fast and funny....It’s a wickedly entertaining good time."—Publishers Weekly

Good book overall

Good luck good storyline. I was right about the killer. I do not feel bad for Andrew at all.

Loved every minute

Engrossing. Interesting and surprisingly emotional story line, a few twists and turns that kept you guessing. At its heart a lovely romance between two lonely characters. Refreshing. Very good performances by the narrators. Just loved it and definitely recommend it.

Such a surprise

So I went into this thinking that it was entirely about serial killers. Turns out it was a funny, romantic, thrill ride with a splash of serial killing. But I enjoyed it nonetheless. The characters are flawed and realistic, but lovable. The storyline was witty and believable. I really enjoyed this listen and would recommend!

so underrated!!

I love Christian and Dominique's performance! They were perfectly cast as Jake and Dolores. The writing is so witty, very unique and will have you cackling. MORE PEOPLE NEED TO LISTEN 👂 TO THIS BOOK! it's so good. top 5 books of 2025.

So Much More Than I Expected, In All The BEST Possible Ways!

When I bought “Serial Killer Games” I expected a darkly humorous, albeit it off the wall, cat and mouse serial killer thriller, but what I got was SO MUCH MORE! While “Serial Killer Games” IS outrageously, laugh out loud funny, it is also seriously DEEP and extremely well executed with a PLETHORA of unexpected plot “twists”! This plot is loaded - ohhh the feels, my heart broke, my blood boiled, I wanted to scream, and did you know that “fist pumping” and yelling “YES” whilst walking down the street when no one can see your headphones gets you a lot of funny looks? … but I digress … The point is that I was so enthralled, so in the moment with THIS story and THESE characters that as I listened, I found myself coming to care and care deeply about some - and deeply loath a few as well - their identities not shared here to preserve the mystery of the stunning twists in THIS spectacular story for future listeners. Just know that this story, THIS fabulous story resonates as real, heartbreakingly AND heart soaringly REAL, and is one of MY best, top rated listens of the year. Brought truly alive, exactly as the author intended by beautifully emotional, beautifully perfect, professional voice acting, I could not stop listening to this beautifully brilliant presentation! Five stunning stars across all categories! I LOVED “Serial Killer Games”!
