She's All the Rage: The Devil Wears Prada meets The Exorcist in this wickedly glamorous horror
Not yet published
Expected 25 Feb 27Darkly glamorous and viciously funny, She’s All the Rage is a tailor-made nightmare about identity, ambition, and the horror of getting exactly what you wished for.
'Radford at her lyrical best . . . A compulsive page-turner'
– Charlotte Cross, author of The Brides
The Devil Wears Prada meets The Exorcist in this wickedly chic horror novel about the cost of wishing you were someone else.
Ilona Darke has always felt like a ghost in her own life. She’s overlooked at work, can’t find love, and is haunted by the sense that she was meant for something more. Until she discovers Le Fays, a mysterious SoHo atelier, where she finds a stunning suit that fits her like a glove.
When Ilona begins wearing the second-hand garment, a new, more confident voice begins to replace her lifelong internal bully. Ilona stands a little taller. Speaks a little sharper. Wants more than the life she’s accepted. And the new, persuasive voice in her head feels less like a threat than a gift. But every gift comes with a price. As the Manhattanhenge solstice approaches, Ilona begins to lose track of time. She’s been waking up with unexplained bruises and pulling threads from her skin; she’s starting to wonder whether the suit is actually helping her become her best self or if it wants something more . . .
'A thunderous, furious rumble of a book'
– Gemma Amor, Bram Stoker, Shirley Jackson and BFA nominated author of ITCH!

Review of advance copy received from NetGalley
This was so good! It started with “Needful Things” vibes before it went off in a completely different direction.
