Summary
Brought to you by Penguin.
I've never met someone like me, but when I do, eventually, I think it will be like two wolves meeting in the night, sniffing and recognising a fellow hunter.
Meet Chloe. First-year student, ordinary legging-wearing girl next door...and diagnosed psychopath with an IQ of 135. Her hobbies include yogalates, parties and plotting to kill Will Bachman.
Chloe is part of a secret clinical study of young psychopaths run by the university's psychology department. Most psychopaths aren't criminals, but when a string of murders on campus causes upheaval, Chloe's private vendetta is sidelined. Partnered with fellow study participants she can't trust - and distracted by typical university life - Chloe has to walk the line between hunter and prey.
Never Saw Me Coming is a sharp, electrifying and hugely entertaining thriller with an antiheroine who will work her manipulative magic on you.

Critic reviews
"Vera Kurian has put together a powerful puzzle of a murder mystery, as impossible to solve as it is to put down. What starts as a delicious thriller becomes a fascinating investigation of amorality, vengeance and redemption. A powder keg of a debut." (Robin Wasserman)
"Stick a bunch of devious psychopaths together and what could possibly go wrong? Find out in Never Saw Me Coming, a completely original, clever whodunit from a talented new arrival to the world of psychological suspense. Vera Kurian is one to watch!" (Mary Kubica, New York Times best-selling author of The Other Mrs.)
"Gripping! With a college campus setting, charming psychopaths and a bitingly clever voice, Never Saw Me Coming is a dazzling debut from a bold new talent." (Tess Gerritsen)

Good concept
I enjoyed the concept but the lead character wasn’t very interesting- even though I wanted her to be. Didn’t like the twist - didn’t make sense, but not bad overall.

A good story
I like books where psychopaths are depicted as neutral or good, and Never Saw Me Coming doesn’t disappoint. Chloe is a very sympathetic character and Charles and Andre are reasonably so as well.
Most books about psychopaths have more gore than this, but often that is gratuitous and makes it seem less gripping and more comical.
If you want a book where a psychopathic serial killer tortures and kills for fun then there are better options out there for you. But if you like morally grey characters who are nonetheless interesting and relatable then this is a good book for you.
