Descripció de l’editorial
Fast-paced, electric, and barbed with nerve-shredding thrills, Wicked Sharp is exquisitely addictive—every page drags you deeper into the hidden world of serial killers. A thriller for fans of Caroline Kepnes, Gillian Flynn, and Lucinda Berry.
A mountain hike with your serial killer father. Good Samaritans who aren’t as innocent as they appear. What could go wrong?
Poppy Pratt is the perfect daughter. Agreeable. Highly intelligent. Most importantly, she’s excellent at keeping secrets—the kind of secrets that give other eleven-year-olds nightmares.
Her father’s perfect too…on the outside. He smiles for the preacher, attends neighborhood barbecues, even bought textbooks for the entire school. In their little town, everyone sees a hero—not a serial killer. But Poppy still feels like the lies are thick enough to choke on.
So when her father surprises her with a trip to the Tennessee mountains, she’s happy to escape the charade. But it isn’t long before the trip goes awry. Between the incoming thunderheads and a climbing accident, the woods feel less like a vacation and more like prison. Luckily, a pair of friendly strangers offers shelter from the storm.
But the couple, with their secluded mountain home, aren’t as innocent as they first appear—it seems they know her father. And if they know him, really know him, they might relish the sight of blood as much as he does. And no killer wants to risk leaving a witness alive, no matter how perfect she might seem.
But there’s always hope for a girl as smart as Poppy.
She just has to be as sharp as her father.
"Full of complex, engaging characters and evocative detail, Wicked Sharp is a white-knuckle thrill ride. O'Flynn is a master storyteller."
~Paul Austin Ardoin, USA Today Bestselling Author

A trip to the mountain you’ll never forget!
We find Poppy as a child, while she and her father are on vacation in the mountains. What follows is an adventure that will make you shiver with anticipation and plunge you into a world where evil is lurking and the instinct to survive is taken to a new level.
During the series, we discover little by little the complexity of Poppy, by returns in the past. In this book, we understand even more what shaped her way of being, the mechanisms she had to put in place to survive under the same roof as the psychopath that is her father. Meghan O'Flynn excels at giving us stories that stand out for their electric atmosphere, their twists and complex characters to whom we become attached despite all their flaws. I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book.
