A Thelma and Louise for the 21st century and a twisted, irresistible mash up of Carol and Parasite - this is an unputdownable edge-of-your-seat ride following two young women wanted for a crime they did not commit.
A scholarship kid with straight As and massive potential, Evie Gordon always thought she was special, that she'd be someone.
But after graduating from an elite university, she finds herself drowning in debt and working as a private tutor to the children of Los Angeles's super-rich.
Everything changes when Evie arrives at the Victor family's lavish mansion for her weekly lesson to discover pure carnage: the bloody remains of Mr and Mrs Victor sullying their beautiful back garden, and a woman crying for help from inside the house.
Within moments, Evie and the woman go from bystanders to suspects to fugitives. Finding herself the target of a nation-wide manhunt, Evie sets out on a road-trip like no other, accompanied by the mysterious woman, who has quickly become the most important person in Evie's mixed up life. Meanwhile the press run wild with her story: a gifted kid turned killer, a new Charles Manson looking to start a class war.
Evie is - finally and disastrously - someone.
Killer Potential is an edge-of-your-seat break-neck ride, a queer love story, and a darkly funny critique of how the stories we're sold about our potential can shape the course of our lives.
