![]() ![]() Mina Pierce who heads the committee sort of figures out that many of the suicides and accidental deaths are actually murders and carried out by the same person. At the same time, the university puts together a task force to look into all the mysterious deaths on campus. But then she gets a little too personal and murders someone she has a grudge against. In Scarlett’s mind, she’s doing the world a favor by getting rid of these abhorrent personalities. ![]() So much so that, though she has been killing since college, she has never been caught. She studies her victims in advance, plots elaborate plans, and stages the perfect deaths. Scarlett only targets those who she believes “deserve to be murdered”, mostly men who have a reputation of harassing women or haven’t been punished for their crimes. Scarlett Clark is an English professor at Gorman University. The social drama aspect of it plays out beautifully and you struggle to decide what morality means in an increasingly hostile world. Centered on a university professor who kills ‘bad’ men, They Never Learn, unlike most other suspense novels, is a thriller that poses a moral dilemma. It’s a solid story, one you find yourself rushing through (you want to know what happens) and simultaneously slowing down (you want the story to never end). I read ‘They Never Learn’ by Layne Fargo on Kindle after fruitlessly waiting to get my hands on a physical copy for months. ![]()
