What to expect
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.
Critics Review

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
