ALICE

- 

Slater follows up her breakout hit Death of a Bookseller with another sinister, slyly clever thriller.Let the Bad Times Roll blends gothic unease, psychological suspense and sharp social satire into one gripping, layered read.

The novel moves between two timelines: New Orleans, then; London, now. In the past, we meet Selina - a solitary figure trying to find her feet in New Orleans. When she's befriended by a charming but unsettling man named Daniel, she's drawn into a complicated relationship that curdles into something darker.
