PRETTY DEAD THINGS

Returning home was her first mistake.
Digging deeper may be her last.

An Old Hollywood actress. Her four adopted daughters. A sprawling Victorian manor surrounded by a bubbling swamp.

One sister drowns. Another refuses to believe it was an accident.

When Briar returns home for the funeral, she doesn’t expect the feeling of being watched or the flashes of her sister’s dark hair in the corner of her eye. She tells herself it’s just grief. It’s all inside her head. Then she finds a note, three lines in her sister’s handwriting, that changes everything:

B,

She's not who you think.

You're next.

PRETTY DEAD THINGS is Liv Lowry's debut novel, a Southern gothic thriller about generational trauma and the dark secrets families hide behind closed doors.
