About this Event

From the bestselling author of Burying the Honeysuckle Girls comes a bewitchingly foreboding story about sacrifice, privilege, family, guilt and the vengeful ghosts of a haunted past. In Gothictown, a restauranteur lured by pandemic-era incentives moves her family to a seemingly idyllic small town in Georgia, only to discover a darkness lurking beneath the sun-draped streets and Southern hospitality.



REVIEWS

"Timely, intense and terrifyingly good," J.T. Ellison, New York Times best-selling author of A Very Bad Thing

"Gothictown is an absolute knockout," Kimberly Belle, internationally best selling author of The Paris Widow

"Troubled waters rise slow and dark and sneaky in Gothictown..." Robert Gwaltney, award-winning author of The Cicada Tree
