The Pallbearers Club : A Novel
A cleverly voiced psychological thriller about an unforgettableââŹâand unsettlingââŹâfriendship, with blood-chilling twists, crackling wit, and a thrumming pulse in its veinsââŹâfrom the nationally bestselling author ofĂ The Cabin at the End of the WorldĂ andĂ Survivor Song.
What if the coolest girl youââŹâ˘ve ever met decided to be your friend?
Art Barbara was soĂ notĂ cool. He was a seventeen-year-old high school loner in the late 1980s who listened to hair metal, had to wear a monstrous back-brace at night for his scoliosis, and started an extracurricular club for volunteer pallbearers at poorly attended funerals. But his new friend thought the Pallbearers Club was cool. And she brought along her Polaroid camera to take pictures of the corpses.
Okay, that part was a little weird.
So was her obsessive knowledge of a notorious bit of New England folklore that involved digging up the dead. And there were other strange thingsââŹâterrifying thingsââŹâthat happened when she was around, usually at night. But she was his friend, so it was okay, right?
Decades later, Art tries to make sense of it all by writingĂ The Pallbearers Club: A Memoir. But somehow this friend got her hands on the manuscript and, well, she has someĂ issuesĂ with it. And now sheââŹâ˘s making cuts.
Seamlessly blurring the lines between fiction and memory, the supernatural and the mundane,Ă The Pallbearers ClubĂ is an immersive, suspenseful portrait of an unforgettable and unsettling friendship.
