Bad Monkeys by Matt RuffSynopsis
Jane Charlotte has been arrested for murder.
She tells police that she is a member of a secret organization devoted to fighting evil; her division is called the Department for the Final Disposition of Irredeemable Persons—"Bad Monkeys" for short.
This confession earns Jane a trip to the jail's psychiatric wing, where a doctor attempts to determine whether she is lying, crazy—or playing a different game altogether. What follows is one of the most clever and gripping novels you'll ever read.

A gripping narrative and wacky story keep up the interest till the very end. This is a story of a woman who has been incarcerated on charges of killing someone and the entire narrative is her recounting the events that led to the murder. The woman claims to be a member of a secret organization that eliminates "Evil" people. They do it without leaving any clues or traces of foul play. She belongs to a faction in that organization that kills irredeemable cases. The story is quite engaging and even credible at times but towards the end where the author introduces a blind surprise.
