In this spoiler-free episode of No Spoil Speed Reads, host Claire Rivers takes listeners on a tense, twist-filled journey through Peter Swanson’s The Kind Worth Killing. Drawing comparisons to Patricia Highsmith’s Strangers on a Train, Claire unpacks the novel’s dark premise—what happens when a stranger casually agrees to help commit murder—while highlighting its morally ambiguous characters and unnerving twists. She also shares a personal anecdote about reading the book on a delayed flight, rates it on her signature “Nightlight Necessity Scale,” and invites audience members to continue the discussion on social media. If you’re craving a psychological thriller with razor-sharp suspense and just enough nightlight paranoia, this episode is a must-listen.
