While the setting of Megan Abbott’s Dare Me may surprise some readers who know her for her pulp-inspired works like Die a Little, the tough female protagonists and high-stake drama remain familiar. In her interview in Publishers Weekly, Megan discusses how the ideas of Richard III, “who is in my way and how can I get what I want?” inspired her tale of contemporary cutthroat cheerleaders. LA folks can catch Megan at her Noir at the Bar event on August 5.
