Surviving the massacre is just the beginning in this razor-sharp summer-camp slasher with a bloody twist from horror master Craig DiLouie.

"The Summer Fun Massacre swings back and forth like a bladed, unstoppable pendulum, gory slasher tale to eerie mystery and back again." --New York Times bestselling author Peter Clines

It's 1992, and in the heat of Texas, camp Summer Fun rests by a crystalline lake surrounded by a shady forest. The counselors have set out the kayaks, prepped the kitchens, and refurbished the cabins. Now, on the night before camp begins, a bonfire and the teenage counselors' rites of passage await.

But the camp has a horrifying history. In the '80s, there was a massacre that left a sole survivor. One final girl. The killer never caught.

Deputy Tom Bailey is always on edge this time of year. There are rumors that the woods are haunted. That the killer might one day return. Tom has deeply personal ties to the '80s massacre, and those ties have plagued his dreams.

Then Tom gets a call reporting bloodcurdling screams coming from the camp. The real nightmare is just beginning . . . .

"DiLouie finds horror's heart still beating beneath the cabin floor. An invigorating reminder that nothing ever really ends ... unless you break the cycle." -- Andrew F. Sullivan, author of The Handyman Method

"Urban legends, a summer camp, teens in peril, and a seemingly unstoppable killer, Craig DiLouie's latest is a brutal exercise in nostalgic horror from an author at the top of his game. Fans of the camp-bound slashers of yesteryear will lose their minds." --Kealan Patrick Burke, Bram Stoker Award-winning author of Sour Candy and Kin

"An exciting and original slasher featuring a terrifying folk horror twist that will drive fans to sign up for the promised second session of Summer Fun Camp in droves." -- Booklist (starred review)

★ "A horror revelation . . . . With its sharp prose and likable main character, the novel is difficult to put down." - Library Journal (starred review)
