"A tense, enthralling psychological thriller." - Guardian

"More than just a killer premise. a propulsive YA thriller."
  - Culturefly

  "Kill Creatures blew me away. A YA thriller masterclass.
  Nan is a standout protagonist, all jagged edges and pointed teeth
  but with a soft and vulnerable underbelly. I cannot stop thinking
  about it. Rory Power is at her very best" - Laura
  Steven, author of Our Infinite Fates

  "A shuddery and gripping specter of a book, Kill Creatures
  is an ode to the knife-sharp edges of teenage friendship."
  - Ava Reid, #1 New York Times bestselling author of A
  Study in Drowning

  "Electric...a terrifying and stunningly crafted thriller."
  - Kara A. Kennedy, author of I Will Never
  Leave You

  "Kill Creatures grabs you by the throat and demands to
  be read in a single sitting." - Kara Thomas, author of
  That Weekend and The Cheerleaders

  "Kill Creatures is a pulse-pounding page-turner. A true
  master class in suspense, character, and tension." -
  Kayla Cottingham, New York Times bestselling author of My
  Dearest Darkest

From the bestselling author of Wilder Girls and queen of twisty narratives, Rory Power, comes her highly anticipated new Young Adult thriller. Last summer, Nan's three best friends disappeared into Saltcedar Canyon.

She's spent the year since grieving their loss and avoiding
  questions about what happened that night. Now, on the anniversary,
  she's ready to say goodbye, and so are the girls' families,
  who have reconvened to hold a memorial. But their vigil is interrupted
  by the shocking return of one of the missing girls alive.
  Everybody is overjoyed. Everybody, that is, except Nan, who was
  pretty sure they were dead.

After all, she's the one who killed them.

Atmospheric, fast-paced and vividly realised, Kill Creatures is a book about secrets, jealousy, violence and revenge.

Perfect for fans of A Good Girls Guide to Murder
  and Gone Girl.
