THE CEMETERY BOYS
Welcome to Spencer. Population: 814. It’s a backwards town—and it’s hiding a terrible secret. When Stephen’s dad says they’re moving, Stephen knows it’s pointless to argue. They’re broke from paying Mom’s hospital bills, and now the only option left is to live with Stephen’s grandmother, a woman as bitter and stuck as the town of Spencer itself.
Stephen’s summer starts looking up when he meets punk girl Cara and her charismatic twin brother, Devon. The twins have family problems of their own and aren’t exactly close, but Stephen is drawn to them, each for different reasons. With Cara, he feels safe and understood—and yeah, okay, she’s totally hot. In Devon and his group, he sees a chance at making real friends. Only, as the summer presses on, and harmless nights hanging out in the cemetery take a darker turn, Stephen starts to suspect that Devon is less a friend than a leader. And he might be leading them to a very sinister end.
Mixing classic horror elements with a darkly funny coming-of-age story, in THE CEMETERY BOYS, New York Times bestselling author Heather Brewer brings her razor-sharp edge to a story about the dangerous power of belief and the cost of blind loyalty, taking readers to the brink of madness and past the point of no return.
Heather Brewer is the author of two middle grade series (The Chronicles of Vladimir Tod and The Slayer Chronicles) and the YA fantasy novels Soulbound and Soulbroken.
