When you lose the person who is most essential to you, who do you become . . . ?
A smart, socially conscious, and deeply moving thriller, Saint X is a haunting portrait of grief and obsession, race and privilege, family and self, as well as the bond between two sisters never truly given the chance to know one another.
“Richly atmospheric, by turns coolly satiric and warmly romantic, Alexis Schaitkin’s Saint X is part true-crime thriller and part coming-of-age novel; irresistibly suspenseful and canny." -- Joyce Carol Oates, bestselling author of We Were the Mulvaneys, Blonde, and Zombie
