The bestselling author of Good Girls Die First, It's Behind You and Tag, You're Dead is back with an entertaining, high-octane and read-in-a-single-sitting new thriller. Cabin in the Woods meets Squid Game - a girl playing a game with a supercomputer unwittingly traps her sister in a deadly escape room. When Saffron is forced to do work experience at a tech company, she gets into an argument with her supervisor over which high school stereotype would survive the longest in a horror film: the sports star? The queen bee? The swot? The drama girl? The class clown? The rebel? Unbeknown to them, the AI robot she is working on at the time decides to determine the answer by testing it out for real. It designs an algorithm to search social media and school records to find the best examples of each stereotype from the neighbouring towns, and the invitations go out - six people, including Saffron's perfectionist sister Georgia, will be trapped in a series of deadly escape rooms and only one will survive the night... It's Cabin in the Woods meets Squid Game Perfect for fans of Holly Jackson and Karen McManus. Knife-edge tension and twists you won't see coming. PRIASE FOR KATHRYN FOXFIELD'S PREVIOUS BOOKS Good Girls Die First "Deliciously dark and unsettling in the best possible way. Trust me, you don't want to miss this one!"- Fantastic Book Dragon "Stephen King-esque...with a fast-paced plot" - Irish Times " . . . the most gripping thriller of the year; hugely entertaining, high-octane and read-in-a-single-sitting." - ReadingZone" "Foxfield's focus on social niches and escalating suspense will appeal to fans of Karen McManus." - Publishers Weekly "This gothic-inspired thriller with nods to Agatha Christie and Daphne du Maurier will keep readers on the edge of their seats and turning pages as quickly as they can. It is immersing, puzzling, and unpredictable, with a surprise ending that's sure to have teens talking. - School Library Journal "Undeniably creepy from the start... With a macabre escape and a surprising amount of heart, this will leave readers feeling oddly optimistic and perhaps a little kinder to themselves..." - The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books, STARRED Review It's Behind You "addictive, easy to get lost in, and utterly compelling to read" - And On She Reads "keeps you on the edge of your seat and guessing who did it until the very last pages" - ReadingZone Tag, You're Dead "The characters are addictive, the ending satisfying and the reveals at the end pack a punch. If you love your twisty thrillers, then Tag, You're Dead is a must read!" - Rosie Talbot, author of Sixteen Souls "Full of tension and twists, readers will be unsure who to trust as the book heads to an explosive conclusion." - The ReadingZone "a smart and calculated read with a killer storyline that shows the dark side of fame" - Pretty Little Memoirs
