The lives of those who survive, including a sorority president and key witness, Pamela Schumacher, are forever changed. Across the country, Tina Cannon is convinced her missing friend was targeted by the man the papers refer to as the All-American Sex Killer-and that hes struck again. Determined to find justice, the two join forces as their search for answers leads to a final, shocking confrontation.With award-winning storytelling, Bright Young Women doesnt put its focus on the murderer. Its more interested in his victims-and the survivors who are on a mission to catch him before he kills again (Time). Blisteringly paced, it is a compelling, almost hypnotic read and I loved it with a passion (Lisa Jewell, New York Times bestselling author).
