Ep. 87 - Whisper of Death by Christopher Pike

This morning’s episode Anna and Austin review and discuss the 1991 young adult horror novel by Christopher Pike. Roxanne and Pepper are a teenage couple with problems. They leave their small town for a weekend to try and solve them. They don't really succeed, and when they return home they find their town empty. They call other towns. They find the whole world empty. But eventually they discover three other kids their Age who are still alive in the town. They cannot imagine why the five of them seem to be the only ones left of the entire human race. They have only one thing in common. They were each directly or indirectly involved in the death of Betty Sue - the plain, shy girl who committed suicide only a short time ago. Betty Sue - the quiet, brilliant girl who wrote short stories about each of them. Stories of hate, of revenge, of death in a dead world. It makes them wonder who Betty Sue really was. Or what Betty Sue was.RIFK is a comedy children’s books club podcast where twice a month Anna and Austin read & review children’s books and sometimes comics like they are the works of art they are! Tune in almost every other Saturday to this comedy book club podcast!Support the lovely people who created stuff for the show:Artwork created by UmangihIntro Music created by Gianlu_composesCheck out our Sick Merch: https://dispersed-audio-shop.fourthwall.comJoin our Patreon to support the show and get ad-free podcast episodes, exclusive voting power on upcoming episodes, full access to our exclusive Patron Discord, and get access to a secret podcast called Ask Anna & Austin where we take Patron questions or read questions off the internet!
