Book Club | Murder Road

Join us in discussing this month’s book club pick Murder Road by Simone St. James. 

Off on their honeymoon, April and Eddie take a wrong turn onto the infamous Atticus Line though they don’t know it yet. They drive past a girl walking along the side of the road with a jacket pulled tight around her. But why would someone be walking alone in the middle of the night? Being the good samaritans that they are, they offer to help not realizing that she’s hurt until she’s already climbed into the back of the car. Soon after, headlights flare up behind them and they speed to the nearest little town. Little are they prepared for the detectives to be calling them the killers. Did they kill the girl on the side of the road or has something more sinister been happening for the past 20 years?

Kait and CJ discuss true crime in the horror genre, why this book had no meat, and the latest trend in the book world. 

For our next book, we’ll be reading The Woods All Black by Lee Mandelo.
