So Much Pretty

Reminiscent of The Silence Of The Lambs and The Lovely Bones, Cara Hoffman's psychological thriller So Much Pretty has been acclaimed as "a remarkable debut" (Publishers Weekly). When 19-year-old waitress Wendy White disappears, the small town of Haeden, New York, is shaken to its core. Yet the police make little headway with the case, assuming that Wendy ran away. Six months later, Wendy’s tortured body is found in the nearby woods. And she has only been dead a matter of days. Told from the perspectives of Wendy, local reporter Stacy Flynn, and high school student Alice, this compelling tale of murder, revenge and violence builds slowly and eerily to a shocking and unforgettable conclusion.
