DESCRIPTION

the dazzling new thriller with a jaw-dropping twist from the bestselling author of Party of Liars
A long-buried secret. A beauty pageant turned deadly. A town frozen in fear.

From the instant USA TODAY bestselling author comes a sparkling new thriller.

'Pretty Dead Things builds an exquisite, simmering tension against the backdrop of small town pageant glitz. It weaves together entangled lives, beautifully layered characters and deeply buried secrets, right to that deliciously satisfying end'
MARY WATSON, SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER

'I raced through this book. SO many secrets that will keep you reading late into the night!'
'The best psychological thriller I've read for a very long time'
'THE PLOT TWISTS!!!'
'Claustrophobic, poignant, layered . a thoroughly compelling read'
'Everything a thriller should be: fast, twisty and impossible to put down'
'The characterisation was compulsive and the twists were brilliant'
'The ending is a total game-changer that makes you want to go back and re-read the whole thing to see what you missed'
'A sharp, atmospheric page‑turner with a wicked sense of timing - and a body count to match'

It was a beauty pageant . now it's a crime scene.

Twenty-five years ago, Isabelle Whitmore vanished without a trace during the Lone Star Princess Pageant in Anhalt, Texas. This year, the pageant is offering more than just its annual dose of rhinestone heels and plunging necklines - Isabelle's sister, Ingrid Whitmore, is back and looking for revenge.

But just as confrontations and old rivalries reach their boiling point, the temperature plummets: record-breaking snow and freezing rain bring down the state's entire power grid.

With everyone trapped under one roof, secrets will be spilled, scores will be settled - and more than one beautiful liar will end up dead.
