The Getaway

Lamar Giles

‘Timely, thrilling, and gripping from start to finish.

An absolute page-turner.’ -KAREN M. MCMANUS, BESTSELLING AUTHOR

OF ONE OF US IS LYING

NO ONE HAS EVER DIED IN KARLOFF COUNTY

Welcome to the funnest place around … Jay is living his best

life inside Karloff Country, home of the world’s most epic amusement

park. He’s got his family, his crew, and a dope after-school

job at one of the parks. Outside Karloff Country, things aren’t

so great for the rest of the world. But when people come here to

vacation, it’s to get away from all that to a picture-perfect place.

Until suddenly everything changes. People start disappearing

in the middle of the night, including Jay’s friend Connie and her

family.

Then the richest and most powerful families start arriving at

Karloff, only … they aren’t leaving. Unknown to the employees,

the famous resort has been selling shares in an end-of-the-world

oasis. The best of the best at the End of Days. And in order to

deliver the top-notch customer service the wealthy clientele paid

for, the employees will be at their total beck and call. Whether

they like it or not.

Yet Karloff Country didn’t count on Jay and his crew-and

just how far they’ll go to find out the truth and save themselves.

But what’s more dangerous: the monster you know in your home or

the unknown nightmare outside the walls?

Perfect for fans of Tiffany D. Jackson, Angie Thomas, and Stephen

King

A creepy thriller - the speculative genius of Jordan Peele meets

masterful writing
