Killing Eve: Die for Me by Luke Jennings

Following the wildly popular BBC America adaption of Codename Villanelle, a high-stakes, addictive installment of Jennings’s acclaimed Killing Eve series.

Though the cat and mouse chase between these two lethal adversaries has seemingly ended, the sophisticated, deadly thrill of Eve and Villanelle’s relationship is far from over. Told in Jennings’s stylish prose, Killing Eve: Endgame is another page-turning chapter in the espionage exploits of Eve and Villanelle.

Reviews

The TV series of Killing Eve & Dexter have odd parallels or me. Both series & the novels they are based on eventually follow differing storylines. This means you have to remember events & characters in both formats & how they differed. However, while the Dexter novels became weaker as the TV series got stronger with Killing Eve it’s the opposite. So, having just watched a rather dull & lacklustre series 3 of Killing Eve I was glad to pick up the third novel by Luke Jennings.
Killing Eve on TV is now pretty much style over content, whereas Die For Me (or Endgame as it’s called here) is just a good old fashioned spy story.
Jennings gives the reader a fast paced adventure that keeps its focus on Eve & Oxana (Villanelle) as they experience the harsh winter of St Petersburg. There’s perhaps a little less humour than in the previous two novels, but just as much sex & violence as ever. So, if that’s the bag you’re into check this one out.
