Summary

Sweetpea soon to be a major TV series starring Ella Purnell

Everyone’s favourite serial killer is back, and she’s more unpredictable than ever…

Sometimes, you can be your own worst enemy…

Rhiannon Lewis thought she finally had it all: thanks to the pandemic she’s had to keep a much lower profile but has found happiness with her fiancé Rafael and his family. For once, she is surrounded by people who love her for who she is (or who they think she is).

After over 800 days without murdering anyone, the woman formerly known as the Sweetpea Killer thinks she might have finally turned over a new leaf.

That is until her soon-to-be sister-in-law has a run in with her abusive ex, and Rhiannon rediscovers her taste for revenge. This time, with a loving family in tow, the stakes are much higher. Wedded bliss and life as a normal person are finally within Rhiannon's reach, but you can never keep a good serial killer down.

Can you?

meh! teenage romance but awesome series

the first three books were my favourite I've read and re-read recently and was ecstatic to see a 4th released and read it straight through but it reads like a predictable teenage romance and not up to the first three books innovative exciting standards. though interested to see where the story went next i feel a disappointed after finishing it....narrator was excellent as usual. this was my least favourite of the 4 books but as a series still my favourite series ive read this past year.

Fantastic follow up

The sweet pea series is one of the few in my library I have re-listened to twice now. What a talented writer and narrator. Rhiannon is such a vibrant and multi-faceted character and the narrator performs her to perfection. Can’t wait for the next one 🙏 did I see something about a TV series? I really hope so 🤞

WORTH THE WAIT


Greatly anticipated as enjoyed the other in series - my only gripe is the derogatory use of the name Karen as that’s my name! Other than that please bring in the next instalment

The best thriller type series I’ve ever read/listened to!

I’ve had this on preorder & was not so patiently waiting for the release. As soon as I knew I only had a week to wait & I re listened to the series from the start for the 4th time & I can honestly say I absolutely love it every single time a new book comes out.

Rhiannon is the serial killer that we can’t help but love, in this “chapter” you find yourself routing for her to be loved & fall in love with who she’s become and her new family. She obviously hasn’t turned a whole new leaf though and is still the funny, sadistic sweetpea we’ve grown to know and love.

I am truly gutted by this ending and really hope it is not so! Please be quicker with the next instalment I cannot wait another year 😂🤎

My fav serial killer is back

I was so excited to see a 4th in thr Sweetpea series, and it didn't disapoint. I was gripped, repulsed, laughed, and loved it. There had better be a no 5!

Bloody brilliant

I’m a huge fan of the sweet pea series and this 4th instalment was just as good as the others. The additional character building of Rhiannon and her relationship with her partner was lovely. Towards the end I was hoping she would do the right thing and my heart was totally with her. I need book 5 now as that cliffhanger was just jaw dropping.

Outstanding performance by Georgia Maguire

Outrageous laugh out loud humour

loved the collection of 4 Rhiannon Lewis books brilliantly written and narrated on audible so you can listen during the day and read at night
