Description

Dead Dead Girls by Nekesa Afia is a gripping historical mystery that brings to life the vibrant world of 1920s Harlem. When young Black women start turning up dead, Louise Lloyd is forced to confront her past and team up with the police to solve the case.

A harrowing kidnapping ordeal in her teens has left its scars, but Louise is determined to maintain a normal life. Working at Maggie's Café and socializing at the Zodiac speakeasy are just two of the ways she tries to keep her demons at bay. However, when a girl is found dead in front of the café, Louise is drawn into a deadly game of cat and mouse.

With an ultimatum from the police - help solve the case or face jail time - Louise must navigate the treacherous underworld of 1920s Harlem to uncover the truth behind the murders. As she delves deeper into the mystery, she finds herself in a desperate fight for survival against a ruthless killer.
