# To Kill a Man by Sam Bourne (Paperback)

**A cat-and-mouse thriller of rare intelligence, _To Kill a Man_ is the latest from number-one bestseller Sam Bourne -- a twisting, timely story of power, justice and revenge.**  
  
A woman is brutally assaulted in her own home by an intruder. She defends herself -- leaving her attacker dead.  
  
But this is no ordinary woman. She's Natasha Winthrop, tipped as a future president of the United States.  
  
When inconsistencies emerge in Winthrop's story, political troubleshooter Maggie Costello is drafted in to save Natasha's career. At first, Winthrop is hailed as a #MeToo heroine: the woman who fought back. But Maggie is soon forced to confront more troubling questions about what really happened that night. Did Natasha secretly know her attacker? Is there a link to similar attacks, in America and around the world?  
  
Who is Natasha Winthrop -- and what is she capable of?
