Description
From Arthur C. Clarke Award-winner Tade Thompson, The Legacy of Molly Southbourne continues his chilling series.
Whenever Molly Southbourne bled, a murderer was born. Deadly copies, drawn to destroy their creator, bound by a legacy of death. With the original Molly Southbourne gone, her remnants drew together, seeking safety and a chance for peace. The last Molly and her sisters built a home together, and thought they could escape the murder that marked their past. But secrets squirm in Molly Southbourne's blood--secrets born in a Soviet lab and carried back across the Iron Curtain to infiltrate the West. What remains of the Cold War spy machine wants those secrets back, and to get them they're willing to unearth the dead and destroy the fragile peace surrounding the last copies of Molly Southbourne. The Legacy of Molly Southbourne brings the story to a bloody end.Product Details

Nominated for the Philip K. Dick Award!
"The Molly Southbourne trilogy ends in as much blood and heartbreak as it started. Themes of redemption and found family slide the last puzzle pieces into place in this exciting and haunting series." --Library Journal, Starred Review
"A crisp, gritty tale at the intersection of horror, sci-fi, and crime fiction. Hard-hitting and adrenaline-stimulating...series readers and lovers of strong female characters will be pleased." --Publishers Weekly
"A bloody, intriguing puzzle of a novella." --Kirkus "An enormously vivid, enormously peculiar novel... compellingly written." --Locus "Excellent, bloody, unsettling." --The Book Smugglers "The Murders of Molly Southbourne reaches deep into the heart of existence and drags our fears into the sunlight. An excellent, terrifying read." --Fran Wilde, award-winning author of Updraft, Cloudbound, and Horizon "Tade Thompson weaves a subtle, surreal tale of life, death, love and damnation around an absolutely unforgettable heroine. Molly will terrify you, even as she breaks your heart." --Stephanie Saulter, author of the (R)Evolution books "By turns disturbing, fascinating and heartbreaking, and mesmerizing from first to last." --Simon Bestwick, author of the Black Road series and The Feast Of All Souls "Viciously real. Chillingly absurd. There's a visceral, bloody logic to Tade Thompson's tale of self murder." --Jon Courtenay Grimwood, author of The Fallen Blade "A story to make your skin crawl and your veins feel full of dark secrets." --Sophia McDougall, author of the Romanitas trilogy, Mars Evacuees and Space Hostages "A darkly compelling, offbeat tale punctuated by memorable characters and an endlessly fascinating mystery. The dark imagination of Tade Thompson is a wondrous thing to behold." --Maurice Broaddus, author of Buffalo Soldier "A novella that showcases the emotional depth of this writer, Tade Thompson's The Murders of Molly Southbourne is utterly compelling, dark and disturbing." --Kaaron Warren, author of Slights
