The countdown has begun... True-crime podcaster Elle Castillo has been obsessed with The Countdown Killer for decades. Twenty years ago, he established a gruesome pattern of taking and murdering three girls over seven days, each a year younger than the last. No one's ever known why he followed this pattern, or why they stopped abruptly after the eleventh victim. Most believe him to be dead. Elle knows he is not and is hellbent on serving historic justice. When the kidnappings start up once again, Elle must confront her responsibility in forcing the killer out of hiding. She needs to stop the deadly countdown and convince both the authorities and her podcast audience, before the Countdown Killer can claim his next victim.
'Girl, 11 is a powerful, engaging debut from Amy Suiter Clarke - and gives readers a memorable, genuine protagonist in Elle Castillo. Clarke crafts a tale of obsession, dark histories, and one woman's quest to bring a terrifying killer to justice, Girl, 11 is delivered with poise, style, and cunning - making it impossible to put down.' - Alex Segura, acclaimed author of MIAMI MIDNIGHT, POE DAMERON: FREE FALL, and BLACKOUT
'Delectably tense and terrifying, GIRL, 11 introduces us to a dormant serial killer and the podcaster who will risk everything-even her own life-to uncover his identity. With psychological precision and electric storytelling, Amy Suiter Clarke has created a thriller that feels ripped from the headlines, her Countdown Killer becoming as real to the reader as the Golden State Killer or BTK. True crime fanatics will find their new obsession in this dark, page-turning debut.' - Megan Collins, author of THE WINTER SISTER and BEHIND THE RED DOOR
