Lovely Bad Things: Hollow's Row 1

She put him in an asylum. Now she needs him to catch a killer.

When a grotesque act of violence shatters the gothic stillness of Hollow's Row, criminal investigator Lena is forced to do the one thing she swore she'd never do — walk back into Kallum Locke's world. He's brilliant, dangerous, and utterly unhinged, and she's the woman who locked him away in an institution for the criminally insane. Calling on him now feels like making a deal with the devil.

Kallum, for his part, hasn't forgotten. And he has absolutely no intention of making this easy for her.

Set against the brooding, fog-drenched backdrop of Hollow's Row — a town that seems to breathe darkness like it was built for it — *Lovely Bad Things* is a dark academia gothic romance that seethes with tension, obsession, and the kind of forbidden pull that burns everything it touches. Every exchange between Lena and Kallum crackles with history, resentment, and something far more dangerous lurking beneath the surface. He watches her like a predator studying his prey, and the terrifying part? She's starting to like it.

With a mystery that twists in all the right directions and a love story that refuses to behave, Trisha Wolfe delivers a slow-burn descent into madness, murder, and magnetic attraction that will keep readers breathless to the final page.
