The bestselling author of Good Girls Die First and It's Behind You
is back with an entertaining, high-octane and
read-in-a-single-sitting new thriller. When teen reality star Anton
Frazer unveils his latest stunt - a live-streamed, citywide game of
Tag in which the prize is to be one of his live-in acolytes - his
fans go wild. The whole world is watching. The contestants are
kitted out with body cams, GPS trackers and pressure sensors that,
if activated by a competitor, will send them out of the running.
They venture into night-time London to hunt each other down. Four
contestants in particular have alternative motives for being there,
secret reasons to want to win despite the risk: money, revenge,
obsession, and fame. And one of them will stop at nothing to be the
victor at the end of this adrenaline-and-fear fuelled night... It's
The Bachelor meets One of Us is Lying. Perfect for fans of Holly
Jackson and Karen McManus. Knife-edge tension and twists you won't
see coming...

confronting an ugly truth, Nole falls prey to a monster that
punishes past transgressions. Growing weaker by the day,
nine-year-old Jake looks back on the time before he was sick,
imagining life as if he were well again. And, forever desperate to
prove his worth to his arrogant brother and distant father, Toby
chases victory at an arcade game with horrifying consequences. But
in the unpredictable world of Five Nights at Freddy's, sometimes
the past can take on a life of its own. In this sixth volume, Five
Nights at Freddy's creator Scott Cawthon spins three sinister
novella-length stories from different corners of his series' canon,
featuring cover art from fan-favourite artist LadyFiszi. Readers
beware: this collection of terrifying tales is enough to unsettle
even the most hardened Five Nights at Freddy's fans.
A string of bad luck you can't seem to shake ... for Angel, Hudson
and Sergio, it's an all too familiar feeling. Repulsed by her
spoiled stepsister's lavish birthday party, Angel exacts a hasty
and ill-fated revenge. Hudson's young life is littered with tragedy
and broken dreams, but a well-paying security job might just be all
he needs to turn things around. Sergio acquires a unique novelty
toy that instantly brings good luck, but is the toy really leading
him to happiness ... or to a more monstrous end? In this eighth
volume, Five Nights at Freddy's at Freddy's creator Scott Cawthon
spins three sinister novella-length stories from different corners
of his series' canon, featuring cover art from fan-favourite artist
LadyFiszi. Readers beware: this collection of terrifying tales is
enough to unsettle even the most hardened Five Nights at Freddy's
fans.
A family mix-up means Louie has to tag along with his engineer
father and his team as they head for a routine job in the farthest
flung and most neglected province of the Federation. A massive
earthquake, with ensuing tsunami, devastates the entire isolated
coastal region, laying bare the other-worldly manner in which the
silent and strange Endlanders deal with life, death and the
hinterlands of memory and loss. Their curious and unsettling ways
raise ghosts for Louie, who has recently lost his own brother. This
modern fable - part ghost-story, part coming-of-age novel and part
astute social and family observation - explores the ways in which
grief can affect not only individuals, but communities at large.
