A Fatal Delivery

Deadly Ambition Collection

A woman’s meticulously controlled world is shaken by a brutal murder in a twisting short story about neighborhood secrets by the New York Times bestselling author of the Delirium Trilogy.

Rituals and routines are safe places for delivery driver Lenora Sforza. Until her schedule is turned upside down by the bludgeoning death of a regular customer—a shocking crime that has left the authorities perplexed. The quietly observant Lenora can’t help but feel that she holds the key to unraveling the mystery. After all, a clever killer has gone to calculated lengths to make her an accomplice to the crime.

Lauren Oliver’s A Fatal Delivery is part of the Deadly Ambition collection, stories about greed, control, and the sinister side of making dreams come true. They can be read or listened to in one bingeable sitting.

this was a fun one... the main character reminded me a bit of Holly Gibney from King's work.
