The Dead Girls Club by Damien Angelica Walters

Available Now

This a dark one!  There is some violence against children so if that’s not your thing, skip it.  

When Heather Cole and her three best friends were young, they were obsessed with dark and twisted stories of the Red Lady.  When that obsession leads to the death of Becca, the friendship between Heather and the remaining girls, Gia and Rachel, falls apart.  Now, decades later, pieces of that fateful night are showing up in Heather’s life. Shaken to her core, Heather must find out who knows about what happened that night without losing her marriage, her family, and possibly, her own mind.  

The Dead Girls Club is a twisting psychological thriller that is hard to discuss without giving away all the good stuff. We get flashbacks to the childhood of Heather and her friends and it was hard to read how bad it was for Becca.  Suffering from abuse and neglect, Becca looked for any way to escape from her alcoholic mother. It’s easy to see why the girls became obsessed with the Red Lady, a mythological figure who would grant wishes to those who tried to communicate with her and were willing to pay her price.  

Heather is convinced that she killed Becca and is desperate to keep the secret from everyone. With no one to confide in, she quickly spirals into conspiracy theories and paranoia. Throughout so much of the book I just wanted her to confide in someone! Anyone!  She couldn’t even speak to her own mother about it.  

Dark and complex, The Dead Girls Club will keep you guessing until the very end.
