The jaw-dropping, page-turning, critically-acclaimed book of the year: a serial-killer thriller unlike any other from the award-winning Lauren Beukes. ‘GONE GIRL has not exactly gone. But THE SHINING GIRLS have arrived’ (The Times). THE SHINING GIRLS is now streaming on Apple TV+, starring Elisabeth Moss and Jamie Bell “It’s not my fault. It’s yours. You shouldn’t shine. You shouldn’t make me do this.” Chicago 1931. Harper Curtis, a violent drifter, stumbles on a house with a secret as shocking as his own twisted nature – it opens onto other times. He uses it to stalk his carefully chosen 'shining girls' through the decades – and cut the spark out of them. He’s the perfect killer. Unstoppable. Untraceable. He thinks… Chicago, 1992. They say what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger. Tell that to Kirby Mazrachi, whose life was shattered after a brutal attempt to murder her. Still struggling to find her attacker, her only ally is Dan, an ex-homicide reporter who covered her case and now might be falling in love with her. As Kirby investigates, she finds the other girls – the ones who didn’t make it. The evidence is … impossible. But for a girl who should be dead, impossible doesn’t mean it didn’t happen… The best and bestseller status of THE SHINING GIRLS is no mystery, as Lauren Beukes masterfully weaves a tale of thrillers and detective work. The sunday times bestselling book takes readers on a journey through time, leaving them breathless and eager for more. For fans of Stephen King (The Outsider), Emily St. John Mandel (Last Night in Montreal), Grady Hendrix (The Southern Book Club's Guide to Slaying Vampires), C. J. Tudor (The Other People), and Megan Miranda (The Girl from Widow Hills).
