Crnooke Suzane

Julia Heaberlin

Sixteen-year-old Tessa Cartwright was found near death in a field among scattered bones and with no memory of what happened to her.

Since then, the media has hounded her as the only survivor of “Black-eyed Susan,” a nickname given to the serial killer’s other victims because their shared grave was covered in the intense yellow wildflowers. Tessa’s testimony about this traumatic experience has left a man in prison awaiting execution. After nearly two decades, in the lonely cold of February, Tessa finds freshly planted black-eyed Susans, which only bloom in summer, under her window. Horrified by the implications—that she has sent an innocent man to prison while the killer is still at large—Tessa turns to lawyers seeking to overturn the death sentence. As the hours tick down to her execution, Tessa fears for her sanity and, even more, for her daughter’s safety. Is the serial killer who is taunting Tessa by leaving a trail of clues still at large? She has no choice but to confront ghosts and repressed memories to finally discover what really happened that night... "Eerie and admirable, Black-Eyed Susans is a haunting journey into a very dark place." - The Observer "A tangled tale of how evil leaves its mark, Black-Eyed Susans weaves a web around the reader, shifting time, perspectives and events." - Jenny Milchman "A spectacularly dark, twist-filled tale about a girl and the ghosts that haunt her."
