Immerse yourself in the tension of 1999 that sweeps across Abigail Tarttelin's Dead Girls. A gripping tale of friendship, audacity, and a murder that shatters a tranquil village.
A quiet community is shocked by the murder of an eleven-year-old girl. As police swarm the village, fear compels parents to keep their children indoors. Unbeknown to her Mum and Dad, though, one girl roams free.
Thera Wilde was the girls best friend. Now alone she is determined to find the killer who murdered her friend. Slipping under her parents' radar she embarks on a fearless quest for justice.
'Sometimes brutal, often tender, and always compelling' – Emily St. John Mandel, author of Station Eleven, on Golden Boy
