About the Book
Annie Lane wasn't doing much of anything with her young life, but now that she's dead she has a purpose: figure out who murdered her and her best friend and make sure he can never kill anyone else.Book Synopsis
Murdered bad girl Annie Lane is back from the grave and hellbent on revenge . . . she just has to figure out who killed her. This fast-paced thriller by a talented debut delivers a horror-infused hunt for justice that's at once furiously feminist, darkly funny, and utterly satisfying. Between her careless mom, her cheating ex-boyfriend, and her rotten reputation around town, Annie Lane is used to being left behind. But she's never been left for dead before--until she wakes up to find her body's been dumped on a mountain rumored to raise the dead. Annie can't remember who killed her, but she'll stop at nothing to figure it out and make them pay. Because girls like her don't get justice unless they take it for themselves. Codie Crowley's propulsive debut presents a furious and cathartic thriller skewering society's condemnation of "unlikeable" girls.Review Quotes
"A wholly original exploration of what it means to be a modern female, with a depth of rage that echoes into the afterlife." -- Mindy McGinnis, Edgar Award-winning author of Female of the Species
"A delight to read." --Paste Magazine "Readers who love thrillers and stories of 'unlikable' female characters will eat this one up." --BookRiot "A darkly funny adventure horror with a good bit of revenge thrown in. For all the weirdo girlies who like a little female rage, as a treat." --Hey YA by BookRiot "Debut author Crowley combines Stephen King's Pet Sematary with Courtney Summers's Sadie in this supernatural thriller. . . . Sardonic first-person narration by rough-around-the-edges Annie is further enhanced by snappy repartee, both of which elevate a plot that covers well-trod ground to a surprising and earned conclusion." --Publishers Weekly "Horror-fueled adventure. . . . The visceral language in Crowley's debut punctuates the nonstop action and brings the eerie supernatural scenes to life." --Kirkus Reviews
About the Author
Codie Crowley told a scary story at a childhood slumber party that caused a mass hysteria, and she's been chasing that high ever since. When she isn't writing chilling fiction, she's probably out looking for ghosts in Salem, Massachusetts, where she lives with her husband, their cat, and a collection of creepy dolls.

Absolute page turner! Fun fast-paced read. There's not a dull moment in this book. I read it within 24 hours. If you love R.L. Stein's Fear Street books, this is the book for you! I'm looking forward to any future books by Codie Crowley!
