My Sweet Girl is like nothing else I’ve read. Set in San Francisco and Sri Lanka, this is a story about friendship, lies, and guilt. A stunning and original must-read * Samantha Downing, Sunday Times bestselling author of My Lovely Wife *This breathtaking debut somehow manages to be terrifying and heartbreaking at the same time. Astonishingly crafted and constantly surprising, the talented Jayatissa lures us into the story with confident hands, and then yanks the rug right out from under us. Ridiculously good. Crazy good. Scary good. This is a big big book * Hank Phillippi Ryan, internationally bestselling author of THE FIRST TO LIE and HER PERFECT LIFE *My Sweet Girl starts with a bang and doesn’t let up. Haunted by her past, hunted in her present, Paloma must find her life in America, or lose it forever. A richly layered, firecracker of a thriller * Eliza Jane Brazier, author of If I Disappear *MY SWEET GIRL is equal parts witty, chilling, and hypnotic, and it includes some of the creepiest lines and images I’ve ever read. By expertly pulling the strings of this riveting story, Amanda Jayatissa will have you thinking you know the answers to the book’s layers of mysteries-until she upends every expectation with a series of shocking reveals. * Megan Collins, author of The Winter Sister and Behind the Red Door *A delicious, twisty, fast-paced thriller with the perfect hint of ghost story, MY SWEET GIRL is sheer reading pleasure * Michele Campbell, internationally bestselling author of It’s Always the Husband *Dark, compelling and utterly original, My Sweet Girl heralds a fresh, new voice in psychological suspense * Riley Sager, New York Times bestselling author of Home Before Dark *
