It’s a must-read that will have you cheering for the American heroine we need. This new novel from the acclaimed author of The Only Good Indians explores the changing landscape of the West through his particular voice of sharp humor and prophetic violence. This summer, as yachts compete with canoes on Indian Lake, Jade is convinced a killer will rise. As a conglomerate known as the Founders begins breaking ground for their rustic mansions in what they’re unironically calling Terra Nova, Jade watches as the small town she knows and hates moves toward catastrophe. Jade feels as if she’s trapped in the opening scenes of a slasher film when tourists go missing and tensions rise between her community and the celebrity newcomers to the Indian Lake shore. Jennifer Daniels, aka Jade, a seventeen-year-old half-Indian outcast, sees recent events that only her encyclopedic knowledge of horror films could have prepared her for in this latest novel from Stephen Graham Jones. There is blood in the water in the depressed rural lakeside town of Proofrock, Idaho.
