"The Shining Girls" is the story of Harper, a time-travelling serial killer, as he is hunted down by Kirby, one of his victims who survived the attack. Curiously (Beukes is South African), it's set in Chicago. We follow our murderer around in quite a few different decades; the well-researched city details were high points in the reading & discussion.
We spent a lot of time untangling the time travel narrative and debating what we think about all the murders. A fun read, for sure, though. Possible spoilers below:
