The Church of Dead Girls

Rowan Myers

This book isn't scary because of the murder mystery it details; this book is scary because of the plausibility of a small town turning to mob mentality.

Murder is inherently terrifying. This is known. But everyone growing suspicious, turning on each other - that fear is more insidious, a creeping, lingering thing that will stay with you longer than the image of the murderer or the victims. If you live in a small town or ever have, this book will stick in your craw.
