Shining Girls Review: A Time-Travelling Serial Killer is on the Loose

The Shining Girls, a novel released by South African author Lauren Beukes in 2013, was once the source of an international bidding war between publishing houses. The author, Beukes, was previously well-known in her home country because she was a freelance journalist and previously published three other books set in her native country. The Shining Girls marked a departure in her work, as it takes place in Chicago during the Great Depression and delves into the territory of thriller and horror. A man discovers a house that leads him into different periods, but to sustain this time travel, he must stalk and kill women—dubbed the shining girls—who show a particular brand of passion and potential. The tables turn when one of the women decides to teach him a lesson about what he has done.
