Description

'My new favorite slasher novel' - Stephen Graham Jones Barbie meets Nightmare on Elm Street in this ICONIC serial killer thriller - perfect for horror fans and scream queens alike, and anyone who loves their murder bloody and pink . . . A SERIAL KILLER? SHE'S SO OVER IT. Barbra Jacobs is done. She's spent twenty years playing the 'final girl' - the prettiest one who gets to survive till the end of the movie - and she's had enough. She's especially done with these creepy guys at backwater horror conventions asking her to sign photos of her twenty-year-old self in underwear. She already knows this will be her last convention. And then she finds a woman with her throat slit in the bathroom. SHE'S NOT ABOUT TO GET CHOPPED INTO TINY LITTLE PIECES. It's a message for her, she's sure of it. And now the bodies are dropping as a deranged killer stalks Barb, picking off her former castmates one by one . . . She's through playing the victim. If she's going survive, Barb must give the final-girl performance of her life. BECAUSE THIS TIME, THERE'S NO ONE COMING TO SAVE HER. ________________________________________________________________________ Readers are OBSESSED with Tanya Pell's utterly fabulous feminist slasher that's perfect for fans of Dollface, Grady Hendrix, Maneater and Splasher.
