The Church of Dead Girls – Stephen Dobyns (1997)

0805051031.01._SX140_SY225_SCLZZZZZZZ_

 

Slow build up of tension as three teenage girls disappear from a small town. The story’s focus is on the town folk whose behaviour becomes as extreme and immoral as the killer. The narrative character is a school teacher, a local loner, whose behaviour the reader mimics as we spy into characters thoughts and motivations.
