Ghost Girl

Vivienne Cross

Beschreibung

Description：
She woke up in the body of a dead girl — and the family who killed her was still in the room.

For years, she'd drifted through the village as a nameless ghost, watching everything, remembering everything. When Lucy Chen's abused body gave out at last, the ghost slid in and took over. What followed was swift, satisfying, and very loud.

But there's a madwoman living in the ruined temple on the hill, clutching a rag doll and calling out a name that feels disturbingly familiar.

And somewhere in the ghost's scattered memory, something is starting to surface.

*Ghost Girl* is a darkly funny, surprisingly tender supernatural story about revenge, justice, and a mother's love so fierce it bent the rules of death itself.

Some women refuse to let go of their daughters. Even death isn't convincing enough.

⭐️ Praise for the bestselling KILLING EVE series ⭐️
Topples the typical spy-action thriller as these two fiercely intelligent women, equally obsessed with each other, go head to head in an epic game of cat and mouse ― Sunday Express
A memorable protagonist . . . there is an extra sheen of glamour that makes Villanelle more a James Bond than a mere killer ― Daily Mail
Like Ian Fleming, Jennings is at once tongue-in-cheek and serious . . . His version of 007 is great fun ― Sunday Times
A short howitzer of a novel . . . Jennings writes at supersonic speed, packing in an impressive number of violent set pieces and sex scenes. The breakneck pace is undeniably addictive but he also displays an offbeat sense of humour ― Metro
Exciting and fun ― Daily Express
Reads a little like Terry Hayes's I Am Pilgrim in miniature . . . the final pages are thrilling ― The Spectator
Racy in several senses and gripping from the word go, you can also see why BBC America commissioned a television version of Jennings's sensational thriller ― Radio Times
