Jill and the Killers

I’ve really been enjoying all the graphic novels I’ve read this year and Oni Press has really been on form so had to ask for this as soon as I saw it.

Jills mum is a detective in a small town and she’s gone missing and Jill has been away from her friends for a year and pushed them away and now is trying to get all that back.

Unfortunately a package arrives that Jill thinks is for her as she signed up for a murder mystery package to be one of the group, but it’s not quite the package they were expecting and this takes them down a rabbit hole of a real unsolved murder as the package was meant for Jill’s mum.

Quite a hilarious bit about not understanding the language being used by her peers from being away for a year in there.

Full of twists and turns, red herrings, false trails, and really well observed behaviour in the friendship group. Secrets and regrets fill this book from start to finish.

This is all magnificently supported by a very dynamic and colourful art style, making the world that the story is set in all the more believable.

Looking forward to this world continuing, just wait for the last panel 😉

I received this from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
