James Kaine, bestselling author of The Dead Children’s Playground, brings you a brutal slasher that will only end when one survivor is declared the FINAL Final Girl.

Survival made them famous. A deranged killer wants to make them dead.

Maddie Shephard learned the hard way that true crime is no laughing matter. Not when she found herself the target of a madman. Plagued by nightmares and a worsening neurological condition, she is a far cry from the flippant podcast host she used to be.

Heather Gorney was one of the first to earn the title “Final Girl.” She had money, fame and respect. But new Final Girls have emerged. Girls who want to be like her without earning it. Girls who need to be taught a lesson. Because Heather doesn’t share the spotlight.

Nova Cabrera is a nobody. A poor Dominican girl from the inner city, a brutal assault left her broken and desperate. The legal system failed her. The media ignores her. Her suffering doesn’t matter to them. If they won’t notice, she’ll just have to make them.

Three very different woman bonded by trauma will find themselves on a collision course, not just with each other, but with a killer that has unfinished business.
