The plan was for her and the boyfriend to head off to festivals over the U.K., dispensing coffee. Instead, Gwen is moping about, drinking too much lousy wine, helping her roommate\/best friend prepare for her wedding (barf!), doing absolutely nothing to prepare for living alone, oh, and dating guys off Connector, the \u201cdating app du jour,\u201d at a rather rapid pace. Gwen has a bit of an addiction to Connector, and her hilarious and droll take on men and dating is reminiscent of Phoebe Waller-Bridge\u2019s character Fleabag. Until the most curious thing happens: there\u2019s a series of murders in her town, all of 30-something year old males, and all\u2014you guessed it!\u2014former Connector dates of Gwen. In no time, the cops are in her face (and deep into her Connector account), observing her every move, and generally acting like she\u2019s their number-one suspect. Pluckish Gwen does the one thing she can do: try to solve the murders herself. Anyone who\u2019s taken a dip in the world of online dating will find much to enjoy here, while everyone will appreciate Chilton\u2019s marvelous tone, dialogue, and humor. Take this wonderful debut on a date, you won\u2019t be disappointed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gwen has tossed aside her long-term boyfriend\u2014why she dumped him is a bit of a mystery in itself\u2014quit her lucrative job, and is now running a failing food truck.
