About this book

ENJOY A FREE EXTENDED PREVIEW OF LIBBA BRAY'S HIGHLY ANTICIPATED NEW NOVEL! "It's Marjorie Morningstar meets Silence of the Lambs, and Bray dives into it with the brio of the era, alternating rat-a-rat flirting with cold-blooded killings."- Booklist (Starred Review) It's 1926, and New York is filled with speakeasies, Ziegfeld girls, and rakish pickpockets. Evie O'Neill just arrived and she's ecstatic! The only catch is that she has to live with her uncle Will and his unhealthy obsession with the occult and Evie worries he'll discover her darkest secret: a supernatural power that has only brought her trouble so far. But when the police find a murdered girl branded with a cryptic symbol, Evie realizes her gift could help catch a serial killer. Printz Award-winning and New York Times bestsell
