About Pretty Dead Queens
Product Description The new homecoming queen is dead . . . and she's not the first unsolved murder at Seaview High. From the critically acclaimed author of The Ivies comes a nonstop YA thriller about a decades-old mystery, a copycat killer, and the teen who will stop at nothing to uncover the truth. "Utterly savage." –Jessica Goodman, New York Times bestselling author of They’ll Never Catch Us "Perfect for... spooky season." –BuzzFeed After the death of her mom (screw cancer), seventeen-year-old Cecelia Ellis goes to live with her estranged grandmother, a celebrated author whose Victorian mansion is as creepy as the murder mysteries she writes. On the surface, life is utterly ordinary in the California coastal town . . . until the homecoming queen is murdered. And she’s not Seaview’s first pretty dead queen. With a copycat killer on the loose, Cecelia throws herself into the investigation, determined to crack the case like the heroines in her grandmother’s books. But the more Cecelia digs into the town’s secrets, the more she worries that her own mystery might not have a storybook ending.

A thriller to die for!" –Jennifer Lynn Alvarez, author of Lies Like Wildfire and Friends Like These "A brain-bending, twisty tale in a picturesque, coastal town bursting with secrets, lies, and ultimate betrayals.
