"Another gruesomely engrossing installment" (Kirkus) in the thrilling #MurderTrending series.

WELCOME TO WHO WANTS TO BE A PAINIAC?, the latest reality TV show on the hunt for the next big-hit serial killer. But don't worry―no one is actually going to murder anyone, as real as the fake gore and pretend murder may appear . . . right?

Seventeen-year-old Becca Martinello is about to find out. When her perfectly normal soccer mom dies in a car crash, a strange girl named Stef appears and lets Becca know that her deceased mom was none other than one of Alcatraz 2.0's most popular serial killers―Molly Mauler. Soon, Becca ends up on Who Wants to Be a Painiac? to learn the truth about her mom's connection to Molly, but things turn sinister when the people around her start being murdered IRL. Will Becca uncover dark secrets and make it out of the deadly reality show alive? Or will she get cut?
