A "page-turner about a TikTok true crime investigator, a '90s serial killer that may not be as dead as everyone would like, a text thread from hell, and long buried secrets that just won't stay in the grave where they belong"--

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description
From the breakout author of Swiped comes a compulsively readable, surprisingly funny, and genuinely thrilling pageturner about a TikTok true crime investigator, a '90s serial killer that may not be as dead as everyone would like, a text thread from hell, and long buried secrets that just won't stay in the grave where they belong.

Kirby Cornell needs a break from everything:

- Her crumbling apartment in the sleepy town of Crowhurst (famous for its bucolic countryside and a second-rate serial killer from the '90s).
- Her dead-end job.
- Her sleazy landlord.
- Her messy roommates.
- And, most of all, the terrible thing they all did.

Luckily, that hasn't caught up with her just yet. Until a new message on their old group chat pops up: Everyone in the group chat dies.

It's the first text her ex-roommate Esme has sent for ages, but that's not the really weird thing.

The really weird thing is, Esme died twelve months ago...

Don't miss the new laugh-out-loud thriller from L.M. Chilton, Everyone in the Group Chat Diesβ€”a murder mystery that fuses the comedy of Friends with the serial killer thrills of I Know What You Did Last Summer.
