Last summer, Nan's three
best friends disappeared into Saltcedar Canyon.

She's
spent the year since grieving their loss and avoiding questions
about what happened that night. Now, on the anniversary, she's ready
to say goodbye, and so are the girls' families, who have reconvened
to hold a memorial. But their vigil is interrupted by the
shocking return of one of the missing girls alive. Everybody is overjoyed.
Everybody, that is, except Nan, who was pretty sure they
were dead.

After all, she's the one who killed them.

  • Atmospheric, fast-paced and vividly realised, Kill Creatures
    is a book about secrets, jealousy, violence and revenge.

  • Perfect for fans of A Good Girls Guide to Murder
    and Gone Girl.
