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.

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, prizewinning debut novel from an electrifying new talent.
