Beth March’s sisters will stop at nothing to track down her killer—until they begin to suspect each other—in this “brilliantly snappy…electrifying” (Publishers Weekly, starred review) debut thriller that’s also a bold, contemporary reimagining of the beloved classic Little Women.

When Beth March is found dead in the woods on New Year’s Day, her sisters vow to uncover her murderer.

Suspects abound. There’s the neighbor who has feelings for not one but two of the girls. Meg’s manipulative best friend. Amy’s flirtatious mentor. And Beth’s lionhearted first love. But it doesn’t take the surviving sisters much digging to uncover motives each one of the March girls had for doing the unthinkable.

Jo, an aspiring author with a huge following on social media, would do anything to hook readers. Would she kill her sister for the story? Amy dreams of studying art in Europe, but she’ll need money from her aunt—money that’s always been earmarked for Beth. And Meg wouldn’t dream of hurting her sister…but her boyfriend might have, and she’ll protect him at all costs.

Despite the growing suspicion within the family, it’s hard to know for sure if the crime was committed by someone close to home. After all, the March sisters were dragged into the spotlight months ago when their father published a controversial bestseller about his own daughters. Beth could have been killed by anyone.

Beth’s perspective told in flashback unfolds next to Meg, Jo, and Amy’s increasingly fraught investigation as the tragedy threatens to rip the Marches apart.

simple yet effective

Overall the story is a little simple however it’s enough to keep me engaged throughout. I loved the pacing and characters. The reveal was not my personal favorite although I did love the theme and the story it told other than the murder mystery.

Loved this!

Fantastic contemporary retelling of Little Women! I can’t wait to read what this author does next!

Astonishing

I am a huge Little Women fan and LOVED this book. I thought it captured all the themes of the original- family, unconditional love, sisterly rivalry etc. Great voice acting

AMAZING!

The twist was good

Loved the story and many twist it had. It kept me engaged and always wanting to know more. I had various suspicious and ended up still being surprised at the end. Would recommend.
