Reviews
"With more twists than a bag of pretzels, this compelling family saga may make you question what you think you know about your own relatives." -  Cosmopolitan  "A page-turning thriller that will allow you to escape into another world...filled with family secrets and a legacy of death and disappearance for the infamous "Roanoke Girls" -- a privileged Kansas matriarchy with more than its fair share of tragic drama."  -  Bustle "A crime must-read to devour... The Roanoke Girls  has nothing to do with Virginia but everything to do with missing girls, as the females in the Roanoke family, who live in a tiny town in rural Kansas not worth naming, are rich, beautiful, and generally short-lived...The farmhouse, which is 'equal parts horrifying and mesmerizing,' is a perfect setting for a gothic mystery full of small-town secrets, lies, and guilt."  -  Literary Hub "Engel drops a wicked twist in the first 35 pages--in the middle of a paragraph on the middle of the page--and lets it sit like a coiled snake...from that point on, The Roanoke Girls becomes a thrilling mystery and a satisfyingly gothic portrait of Middle America...a dark fable of trauma and acceptance about damaged people accepting their crooked parts and using them to move forward."  -  Bookpage "Engel hits a homerun with this "gothic suspense novel" that tells the story of the Roanoke family, a prominent and very private Kansas family...a rollercoaster ride through a dark family history and the one devastating family secret."   - Pulse Magazine "Gripping...[a] gothic page-turner...with revelations readers won't soon forget." -  Publishers Weekly "In her first foray into adult fiction, [Engel] creates a memorable cast of characters and a twisting, tangled plot that attracts readers from the first page...[an] atmospheric and unsettling tale of the secrets and bonds of family, set against the backdrop of small-town Kansas." --  Library Journal "A provocative thriller." --  Telegraph UK "An emotionally captivating story." - Booklist "I was immediately drawn into The Roanoke Girls , a haunting and riveting look at one family's tangled legacy. You won't stop reading until you've unraveled the darkest of Roanoke's shocking secrets." - Laura McHugh, award-winning author of The Weight of Blood "This is a poised and haunting novel, whose enchanting prose belies its dark and intense subject matter. An evocative modern take on Southern Gothic, with a compelling twist which will remain with you long after the book's last sentence." - L.S. Hilton, New York Times bestselling author of Maestra   "An emotionally compelling page turner, The Roanoke Girls takes you inside the dark world of a twisted family and one woman's fight to break free from the chains of her own history. This is family intrigue at its very best!" - Wendy Walker, author of All Is Not Forgotten, "I was immediately drawn into The Roanoke Girls , a haunting and riveting look at one family's tangled legacy.

Synopsis
NATIONAL BESTSELLER "With more twists than a bag of pretzels, this compelling family saga may make you question what you think you know about your own relatives." - Cosmopolitan "Roanoke girls never last long around here. In the end, we either run or we die." After her mother's suicide, fifteen year-old Lane Roanoke came to live with her grandparents and fireball cousin, Allegra, on their vast estate in rural Kansas. Lane knew little of her mother's mysterious family, but she quickly embraced life as one of the rich and beautiful Roanoke girls. But when she discovered the dark truth at the heart of the family, she ran...fast and far away. Eleven years later, Lane is adrift in Los Angeles when her grandfather calls to tell her Allegra has gone missing. Did she run too? Or something worse? Unable to resist his pleas, Lane returns to help search, and to ease her guilt at having left Allegra behind. Her homecoming may mean a second chance with the boyfriend whose heart she broke that long ago summer. But it also means facing the devastating secret that made her flee, one she may not be strong enough to run from again. As it weaves between Lane's first Roanoke summer and her return, The Roanoke Girls shocks and tantalizes, twisting its way through revelation after mesmerizing revelation, exploring the secrets families keep and the fierce and terrible love that both binds them together and rips them apart., NATIONAL BESTSELLER * "With more twists than a bag of pretzels, this compelling family saga may make you question what you think you know about your own relatives." -- Cosmopolitan "Roanoke girls never last long around here.

    Got the TV series combat, season 2 volume one from the seller and they shipped it out fast and well wrapped up for the journey. It arrived earlier than listed and in the condition they listed it as being. This is not a series easy to find out side of complete box set yet alone for the great price they sold it for. The seller showed great communication and I'd buy from them again without question. Good series and good seller.

    I was very surprised with the shipping. It felt like I ordered them one day and got them the next day. It came in a plain bubble wrapped Amazon package. It was exactly as described, and it was a good value for the money. I hope to do business with these folks again.
