There's Someone Inside Your House

Makani Young has spent almost a year in Nebraska, living with her grandmother in a landlocked small town far from Hawaii, where she grew up. She is still adjusting to the move, and something that happened in her past keeps its hold on her.

Then students at her high school start dying. The murders come one after another, each more gruesome and more elaborate than the last, and the town's teenagers have no way of knowing who is next. As the killer closes in on the people around her, Makani has secrets of her own that she cannot keep buried while the hunt for the killer tightens.

This is a teen slasher, written as a fresh take on the classic form. The tone is fun and quick-witted, so expect a story that pairs a rising body count with banter and a fast pace rather than unbroken dread. The setting is a high school in a small Nebraska town, and the violence is graphic.

The book turns on the identity of the person behind the killings, and on whether Makani can survive the plan the killer has in store for her.
