Synopsis

When her best friend Billie is found murdered, eleven-year-old Thera - fearless and forthright - considers it her duty to find the killer.

Aided by a Ouija board, Billie's ghost, and the spirits of four other dead girls, she's determined to succeed. The trouble with Thera, though, is that she doesn't always know when to stop - and sometimes there's a fine line between doing the right thing and doing something very, very bad indeed.

Tense, visceral and thought-provoking, Dead Girls is the new novel from Abigail Tarttelin, the critically acclaimed author of Golden Boy.

Media Reviews
Terrific. A poignant, brave and important book -- S J Watson, author of Before I Go to Sleep, on Golden Boy
Sometimes brutal, often tender, and always compelling -- Emily St. John Mandel, author of Station Eleven, on Golden Boy
Gripping. Tarttelin is a natural storyteller -- Matt Haig, author of The Humans and How to Stop Time, on Golden Boy
Harriet the Spy is all grown up - and readying herself to take on the darkness of the adult world. This somehow manages to combine mystery, thriller, horror, and a lovely elegy to lost friendship . . . Completely unforgettable -- Emma Flint, author of Little Deaths
Feminist, bold, shocking, packed with little epiphanies -- Shelley Harris, author of Jubilee and Vigilante
