Pretty Dead Things: the dazzling new thriller with a jaw-dropping twist from the bestselling author of Party of Liars
Formats & Editions
Beauty dies. But secrets never do . . .
Twenty-five years ago, Isabelle Whitmore vanished without a trace during the Lone Star Princess Pageant in Anhalt, Texas. This year, the pageant is offering more than just its annual dose of rhinestone heels and plunging necklines - Isabelle's sister, Ingrid Whitmore, is back and looking for revenge.
But just as confrontations and old rivalries reach their boiling point, the temperature plummets: record-breaking snow and freezing rain bring down the state's entire power grid.
With everyone trapped under one roof, secrets will be spilled, scores will be settled - and more than one beautiful liar will end up dead.

Big Little Lies meets Rebecca - the thriller of the summer
-
Cox's second suspenseful outing (after Party of Liar, 2025) serves the exact amount of treachery you'd expect, with lots of figurative backstabbing and a few literal deaths. The diverting characters parade their messes across the page for the reader's judging, and there's no shortage of options for who'll be crowned killer in the end. - Booklist
