Four starred reviews!
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.
Editorial Review
Go ahead and threaten me with a good time
I have to be careful when I listen to a mystery. I scare easily, and sometimes a thriller just isn’t worth the disruption to my psyche. But a contemporary retelling of
Little Women in which Beth has been murdered? Thrill me. Terrorize me. I am all in. Katie Bernet’s debut will suck you in immediately with its campy cover and bold, declarative title:
Beth Is Dead. Alternating between then (i.e., before the titular incident) and now, the clever narrative unfurls from the point of view of all four March sisters, brilliantly brought to life (and, ahem, death) by Caitlin Kelly, Emily Tremaine, Ferdelle Capistrano, and Piper Goodeve. I don’t know that I’ve ever enjoyed a retelling more. It’s witty, propulsive, layered, meta, and there are not one but two nested narratives that old and new acquaintances of the March sisters alike will relish. —Katie O., Audible Editor
