Better Than Revenge by Bea Fitzgerald

Thelma and Louise meets The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo with a hint of Amy Tintera edge in this salacious slow-burn suspense following two actresses whose years-long feud made them iconic and the one murder that soared them to infamy.

Nadine Heywood and Harper Moore have been rivals since their first days at drama school, a feud that has kept the gossip magazines churning for over a decade. They've fueled the fire at every possible turn. Hollywood's It-Girl versus the acclaimed starlet, caught in a back and forth that can only lead to one thing: one of their demise. And Nadine has finally done it, she’s won—completely and irrefutably—best actress in every award this season, beating out Harper once and for all. But it’s a hollow victory as she drinks alone in her hotel room after the ceremony.

But when a knock at her door reveals Harper covered in blood, she realizes this is her real opportunity to bring her opponent down. Or help her bury a body.

In a moment that defines them both forever, Harper and Nadine must figure out how far their feud will actually go. With flashbacks to Harper and Nadine’s infamous in-fighting building toward a murder that makes them iconic, and excerpts of an interview with Nadine for Harper’s upcoming true crime documentary, this is a murderous tale of scandal, ego, and infamy about two frenemies who may be more like each other than they would ever want to admit.
