As featured on Simon Mayo's BBC Radio 2 Book Club. When beloved high-school student Lucinda Hayes is found murdered, no one in her sleepy Colorado suburb is untouched - not the boy who loved her too much, not the girl who wanted her perfect life, not the police officer assigned to investigate. In the aftermath of the tragedy, these three unforgettable characters - Cameron, Jade, and Russ - must each confront their darkest secrets in an effort to find solace, the truth, or both. Intoxicating and intense, Girl in Snow is a compelling mystery set in small- town America. By focusing on those affected by the crime, rather than the crime itself, Kukafka asks: what's the difference between who people seem to be and who they really are? 'A creepy, psychological drama' GQ 'Kukafka's bewitching first novel spins a spell of mournful confessions around a Twin Peaks -like centerpiece' New York Times 'Utterly compulsive with a compelling, unique writing style' Kate Hamer, author of The Girl in the Red Coat
