by **Stephen Graham Jones** (Author)

**\*_USA TODAY_ Bestseller \* Alex Award Winner \***

**The "viciously clever, over-the-top, genre-skewing" (_The_ _New York Times Book Review_) classic slasher story with a twist from Stephen Graham Jones, the master of modern horror and bestselling author of _The Buffalo Hunter Hunter_, _The Only Good Indians_, and the Indian Lake trilogy.**

1989, Lamesa, Texas. A small town driven by oil and cotton--and a place where everyone knows everyone else's business. So it goes for Tolly Driver, a good kid with more potential than application, seventeen, and about to be cursed to kill for revenge. Here Stephen Graham Jones explores the Texas he grew up in, and shared sense of unfairness of being on the outside through the slasher horror Jones loves, but from the perspective of the killer, Tolly, writing his own autobiography. Find yourself rooting for a killer in this "playful, self-aware, and remarkably gory horror novel" (_The New York Times_).
