Saint X

Saint X is hypnotic, delivering acute social commentary on everything from class and race to familial bonds and community . . . I devoured Saint X in a day.Oyinkan Braithwaite, author of My Sister, the Serial Killer, New York Times

Richly atmospheric, by turns coolly satiric and warmly romantic . . . Saint X is irresistibly suspenseful and canny.Joyce Carol Oates

Here is a marvel of a book, a kaleidoscopic examination of race and privilege, family and self, told with the propulsive, kinetic focus of a crime thriller. Brilliant and unflinching, Saint X marks the debut of a stunningly gifted writer. I simply couldn’t stop reading.Chang-Rae Lee

Saint X is more than the story of a missing girl. It’s a story about why such stories fascinate us . . . [It] also unpacks timely social and cultural issues — about grief, truth, white privilege and our murder-as-entertainment culture.Washington Post
