Living Dead Girl

By: Elizabeth Scott

Narrated by: Kate Reinders

Once upon a time, I was a little girl who disappeared.

Once upon a time, my name was not Alice.

Once upon a time, I didn't know how lucky I was.

When Alice was 10, Ray took her away from her family, her friends - her life. She learned to give up all power, to endure pain. She waited for the nightmare to be over.

Now Alice is 15 and Ray still has her, but he speaks more and more of her death. He does not know it is what she longs for. She does not know he has something more terrifying than death in mind for her.

This is Alice's story. It is one you have never heard, and one you will never, ever forget.

Critic reviews

"Disturbing but fascinating, the book exerts an inescapable grip on readers - like Alice, they have virtually no choice but to continue until the conclusion sets them free." (Publishers Weekly)

Great book

This book was well written. Once I started I couldn’t put it down. I had to find out what happened to the main character.

Sad story but good one.

Would recommend to someone who is into this specific genre. Uncomfortable and not for the faint of heart. It’s for specific readers. Well done.

Deeply disturbing and graphic imagery

I think the narrator did a wonderful job conveying this dark and disturbing story. I feel I wasn’t prepared for how graphic the CSA imagery would be. I’m used to books eluding to it but this story it felt like the main focus. I felt very icky after the book ended.

Ended abruptly

I thought there was going to be a lot more to the ending and how things unfolded

Mostly Great

Narrator did an amazing job. The story really got you into how awful the girl's life is and made you feel it. The only criticism I have is the ending was a tad abrupt and unsurprising. It was a good ending still, just lacked that special something. Really made you feel a variety of emotions from pure anger to sadness. Well done.
