“Returning home one day, Roxanne and Pepper find their small town--and surrounding towns--empty. Finally they find three other teens and realize that all five are each connected through the death of Betty Sue, the plain, shy girl who committed suicide only three months before. Betty Sue had written stories about them, stories of hate, revenge, and death . . . in a dead world.

“ this book reads like some undiscovered classic from the golden age of pulp. I wouldn't make an arguement that this is great literature but it's a ripping good read and one of the most fun books I read as a teenager. It may seem tame to fans of adult horror but for a young adult book it's pretty subversive. It got banned from my school library. ”
