Om denne e-bog
A desperate woman is drawn into deadly intrigue to save her brother in this thriller by the author of You Can Trust Me.
“A full-throttle thriller all the way to the deliciously dark end.” —Kimberly Belle, USA Today–bestselling author
Their foster mother, Carol, has always been fanatical, but with Jazz grown up and out of the house, Carol takes a dangerous turn that threatens thirteen-year-old Joaquin’s life. Over and over, child services fails to intervene, and Joaquin is running out of time.
Then Jazz gets a blocked call from someone offering a solution. There are others like her—people the law has failed. They’ve formed an underground network of “helpers,” each agreeing to eliminate the abuser of another. They’re taking back their power and leaving a trail of bodies throughout Los Angeles—dubbed the Blackbird Killings. If Jazz joins them, they’ll take care of Carol for good. . . .
All she has to do is kill a stranger.
“The Kill Club is a deliciously sinister thriller that turns ordinary people into villains . . . or heroes, depending on which side you’re on. And there are many sides.” —Jennifer Hillier, author of Jar of Hearts
“Heard expertly blends nearly nonstop thrills and some genuinely surprising twists with spot-on social commentary that makes an impact without getting preachy. Just try to put this one down.” —Kirkus Reviews
