Synopsis

“If you’re looking for a fun, thrilling read, look no further. The Bang-Bang Sisters is a rip-roaring delight of a novel – pulpy, fast-paced, and absolutely unputdownable.” – New York Times bestselling author Roxane GayFrom critically acclaimed author Rio Youers, an action-packed crime novel featuring three kick-ass heroines—bandmates who moonlight as vigilantes.Blood. Bullets. Rock and roll.Meet the Bang-Bang Sisters: Brea, Jessie, and Flo. Together, they’re a killer rock band with an unbreakable bond.But that’s only half the story. Offstage, they’re highly skilled vigilantes, traveling the country in their beaten-up tour van to exact justice on criminals who have slipped through the system. Part rock stars, part assassins, they’re a force to be reckoned with.Drawn by a tantalizing lead, the sisters head to Reedsville, Alabama—a city crawling with destitution and corruption—where they close in on a notorious serial killer known as “the wren.” But they soon discover that they have walked straight into a trap set by Chance Kotter, a ruthless mobster with a personal vendetta.Bruised and beaten, the sisters find themselves at the mercy of Chance and a sadistic game of survival that will pit them against each other: Forty-eight hours. One city. Three sisters. Only one of them can survive.Full of gripping action and shocking twists that come at a breakneck pace, The Bang-Bang Sisters is a relentless, edge-of-your-seat thrill ride that will leave you breathless.

Goodreads review by Wayne on May 06, 2024

A Tarantino-esque Charlie's Angels, rammed with brutality and banging tunes, all rolled up with a deep and genuine understanding of the human psyche. As always, Rio Youers digs in and makes you care. Even for the bad guys, strangely enough. No mean feat. This one is equally nostalgic and fresh, and w......more

Goodreads review by Geonn on July 17, 2024

As violent and bloody as you'd hope from the premise. After the first 1/3 or so, there's nowhere near as much about them as a band as I would've liked (but the story really didn't allow for it). Hard to imagine a better executed (wordplay!) version of the old well-worn "trio of women in a rock band......more
