Lights Out meets Butcher & Blackbird in Dead Lift, a serial killer romcom from beloved author Clio Evans.

Murdering a man isn't hard. Getting away with it? That's another story.

Forensic scientist Shelby knows how to get away with murder.

While she never intended to actually use her knowledge, justice for her sister comes first. But planning the disposal of a body is a lot easier than, you know, lifting one.

When a hot himbo interrupts her mid-disposal and offers lifting advice, Shelby has to make a choice. Add a buff blonde man to her body count, or . . .

Recruit him as her muscle. Brad is strong, very helpful, and willing to do anything to please Shelby. What could possibly go wrong?

After all, every good villain has a himbo henchman.
