What to expect
Kiss
Angela runs a dating agency and is an expert at connecting over fifties looking for the one.
Marry
Sara has lost her husband and is forcing herself to speed-date in the hope of finding love again.
Kill
Helen lives with her controlling partner, Brian - but she's been keeping his abusive behaviour a secret from her friends.
Until she can't hide it any longer.
Not long after telling her friends the truth, Brian has a shocking accident - and all three women are implicated. Sure, they all wanted to see him dead. But they couldn't be capable of murder. Could they?
Every romance ends one of three ways. It's kiss, marry - or kill...
Critics Review

PRAISE FOR KISS MARRY KILL:
-
Three women (of a certain age) come together in this funny, twisty, dark and clever page-turner. I inhaled it. I loved it. And I want a best friend like Angela. Laura Marshall is on fire.
Nikki May
-
Murderously funny, KISS MARRY KILL sees Marshall at the top of her game. If this book was a dating acronym, it would surely be MRAB: MUST READ - ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT
Fiona Cummins
-
If you enjoyed Bad Sisters you will absolutely love this. A brilliant blend of laugh out loud funny combined with a horrifying expose of coercive control. Brian is one of the most unpleasant characters I have ever encountered in a book!

Deliciously dark from start to finish, this sharp, poignant take on female friendship, marriage and murder is pitch perfect. Loved it - what an absolute treat.
Eleni Kyriacou, author of A Beautiful Way to Die
-
Wry, funny and deliciously socially awkward - tongue-in-cheek but also compelling and full of tension. I couldn't put it down
CE Hulse
-
I was obsessed with all these women! I couldn't put KISS MARRY KILL down. Raced through it! Twisty, surprising, funny. This one had it all. Loved it
Rachel Wolf
-
A hugely enjoyable, funny, and sometimes heart-rending read. Another total cracker of a read from Laura Marshall
Caroline Green
-
Sharp, witty, and oh so very dark, KISS MARRY KILL is another belter of a novel from the fantastic Laura Marshall. Brilliantly-drawn characters making bad decisions, villains you'll loathe, emotional honesty - what's not to love! This deliciously wicked tale of female friendship should be at the top of your must-read list

Praise for LAURA MARSHALL:
-
Funny, tense and insightful, Laura Marshall has once again written a psychological thriller for our times . . . With vivid characters and a compelling plot, this had me turning the pages until the wee hours - I loved it
Jo Callaghan, author of IN THE BLINK OF AN EYE
-
Laura Marshall has taken a dark scenario involving elderly parents that most people will identify with and combines it with such brilliant humour that I laughed out loud on more than one occasion. A fresh and very funny thriller, I loved it
Nikki Smith, author of THE BEACH PARTY
-
A GOOD PLACE TO HIDE A BODY shocks and grips from the very first page . . . you'll never look at a flowerbed in the same way again. I loved it!
Erin Kelly, author of THE SKELETON KEY
-
A darkly funny and compulsive tale of loyalty, love and doing the wrong thing for the right reasons, A GOOD PLACE TO HIDE A BODY kept me reading all night. I loved Penny and her family and laughed and gasped in equal measure as they juggled with the consequences of various very bad choices, desperate for all of them to get their happy ending
Phoebe Lock, author of THE JULY GIRLS
-
A tense, twisty, one-sitting read
Tammy Cohen, author of THE WEDDING PARTY
-
Such a clever and thrilling read
Karen Hamilton, author of THE PERFECT GIRLFRIEND
-
Only the need to sleep stopped me reading it in one sitting. Such a page-turner with no let-up in pace!
Lisa Cutts, author of MURDER AT THE CASTLE
-
A compelling plot interlaced with a growing unease I couldn't shake off - so clever!
Marion Todd, author of A BLIND EYE
-
Superb
The Sun

A pacy, twisty page-turner

Holly Willoughby on MY HUSBAND'S KILLER
-
A name to watch!
Daily Mail
-
A gripping, multi-layered story. Clever and nuanced
Catherine Cooper, Sunday Times bestselling author of THE CHALET
-
Brilliant . . . I couldn't put it down. So cleverly written
Fiona Cummins, author of ALL OF US ARE BROKEN
-
Clever, pacy and compelling
Emma Curtis, author of THE BABYSITTER
-
Dark, funny and extremely satisfying - I loved this book
Harriet Tyce
-
Kiss Marry Kill is classic Laura Marshall, who yet again has somehow managed to write a darkly comic page turner that is also an insightful commentary on our time. It captures the dilemmas of dating for mature women, the strength of female friendships, but with a truly chilling undercurrent of the abuse that happens behind closed doors. Perfect for anyone who loved the TV show Cold Feet, and it would make a great TV adaption!
Jo Callaghan, author of In The Blink of an Eye
