SOLVED. Read in 90's it's a book about a girl who lives with her dad. Killings happening around. Police on search for the killer. Spoiler ahead. [s]

So there is this thriller in which a 15-16 year old girl stays with her father. Book is written from her POV so till the end we think that it is a boy but it is a girl. Guy Fawkes comes in somewhere I think. She is pretty frustrated.

Nisha, is this book for young adults (teens) or older adults?

Who does the serial? killer target?

Time period and location (country/region/big city/small town)?

Can you tell us more about the main characters - father's job, divorced/widowed, siblings/friends, girl's interests/skills, etc.?

I added a spoiler alert to the topic header.

Nisha, are you still looking for this or did you find it?

I think it's gentlemen and players by Joanne Harris. Not sure, though. Got it through someone else posting something similar. 🙂

Here's the Google Books preview of Gentlemen and Players by Joanne Harris:

Sounds more like The Wasp Factory by Iain Banks

This is the book I was searching for. Thanks a lot!
