Cover of Deadly Animals
March 17, 2025 Stephanie B says:
Set in 1980s South Birmingham, this novels puts a fresh twist on the crime thriller genre that is both witty and emotionally captivating.
One night, while indulging her macabre fascination in animal decomposition, 14-year-old Ava Bonney stumbles across a classmate's body. Even when the police take over the case, Ava won’t step back from her own investigation-- not while teenagers continue to go missing.

Stephanie B

I am an adult services librarian who likes short walks to the fridge and long evenings at the park walking the dogs with my husband. To keep my imagination open, I read and watch a little of everything-- from crazy unreliable narrator thrillers to lighthearted rom-coms to fascinating nonfiction. I can be bribed with tacos.
