Marie Antoinette, Serial Killer - by Katie Alender (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

From Edgar Award winning author Katie Alender comes this delightfully creepy ghost story about Paris, murder, and one killer queen.

21st century girl. 18th century ghost. Heads will roll!

Colette Iselin is so excited to go to Paris on a class trip. There will be handsome boys, chocolate croissants, and the Eiffel Tower. And maybe she'll even learn something about her family's French roots.

But a series of gruesome murders are taking place across the city of light, putting everyone on edge. And as she tours museums and palaces, Colette keeps seeing a strange vision: a pale woman in a ball gown and powdered wig, who looks suspiciously like Marie Antoinette.

Colette knows her popular, status-obsessed friends won't believe her, so she seeks out the help of a charming French boy. Together, they uncover a shocking secret involving a dark, hidden history. When Colette realizes she herself may hold the key to the mystery, her own life is in danger. . . .

Now with a refreshed cover look!
