About this listen
An unforgettable story of murder, trauma and childhoods lost, I Shot the Devil is a taut, pause-resisting story perfect for fans of Gillian Flynn and Paula Hawkins from the Richell Prize-winning debut author.
Five went into the woods. Two never came back.
Erin Sloane was 16 when high school senior Andre Villiers was murdered by his friends. They were her friends, too, led by the intense, charismatic Ricky Hell. Five people went into West Cypress Woods the night Andre was murdered. Only three came out.
Ativan, alcohol and distance had dimmed Erin's memories of that time. But nearly 20 years later, an ageing father will bring her home. Now a journalist, she is asked to write a story about the Southport Three and the thrill-kill murder that electrified the country. Erin's investigation propels her closer and closer to a terrifying truth. And closer and closer to danger.
An unforgettable story of murder, trauma and childhoods lost, I Shot the Devil is a taut, prize-winning debut from an electrifying new talent.

"An incredible thriller that kept me up reading. This is the book people will be talking about in 2021. Intense. Wickedly smart. A stunning debut from a gifted author." (Adrian McKinty, best-selling author of The Chain)
"One of the freshest debuts to come along in a long time. A tense, irresistible thriller shot through with moments of unnerving darkness. A clever, compelling read." (Dervla McTiernan, number one best-selling author of The Ruin, The Scholar and The Good Turn)
"A powder-keg with a slow burning fuse...perfectly balanced and terrifically twisting, I Shot the Devil is for fans of Alex Marwood, Paula Hawkins and Gillian Flynn." (Books+Publishing)
