Lady Killer

I laughed hard while reading this dark comedy about a female serial killer.  Josie Schuller works as a killer for a syndicate and is the perfect homemaker at night. She is gorgeous and dresses well so no one suspects what she is up to.

The story opens with her as an Avon lady,  killing her client after offering her a lipstick. Then she gets a job in a nightclub, the Kitty Cat Lounge, where she dresses up as a cat to get close to a man her boss wants dead. She seems to love knives and messes which is not what you expect from a female killer.  Page after page Josie accepts jobs from her superior, a handsome man named Peck, and completes them within a day, all while looking picture perfect in her dream dresses.

There is a mystery to the story at the halfway point but I don't want to be a spoiler.  I understand that there are sequels to this book.  I will be looking for them because I loved this graphic novel. The author came up with a fresh, new idea with this female serial killer who kills like a man but enjoys domestic bliss.  It is worth a look.
