Sisters. Strangers. Survivors.
More than twenty years ago, Claire and Lydia’s teenaged sister Julia vanished without a trace. The two women have not spoken since, and now their lives could not be more different. Claire is the glamorous trophy wife of an Atlanta millionaire. Lydia, a single mother, dates an ex-con and struggles to make ends meet. But neither has recovered from the horror and heartbreak of their shared loss—a devastating wound that’s cruelly ripped open when Claire’s husband is killed.
The disappearance of a teenage girl and the murder of a middle-aged man, almost a quarter-century apart: what could connect them? Forming a wary truce, the surviving sisters look to the past to find the truth, unearthing the secrets that destroyed their family all those years ago . . . and uncovering the possibility of redemption, and revenge, where they least expect it.
Powerful, poignant, and utterly gripping, packed with indelible characters and unforgettable twists, Pretty Girls is a masterful novel from one of the finest writers working today.

Customers say
Customers find the book well-written with meticulous details and a unique voice, while appreciating its compelling narrative that keeps them interested from beginning to end. The characters are well-defined and emotionally engaging, with one customer particularly praising Claire’s character development. However, the violence level receives mixed reactions, with several customers finding the torture and rape scenes too graphic, while others appreciate the psychological thriller elements. The book’s pacing is criticized for being slow at the start, and while some find it heart-wrenching, others describe it as extremely sad.
