Something Is Killing The Children

Hope Is a Knife by James Tynion IV and Kiersten White is the first original novel set in the Something Is Killing the Children universe, expanding the world of the internationally bestselling comic series. It follows Erica Slaughter, a Black Mask hunter with a simple mandate: find the monster and kill it. In the small town of Badwater, Idaho, that job turns murky when a twelve-year-old is killed and the evidence points in too many directions, from animal attack to something far worse. As fear spreads, a charismatic doomsday preacher pushes the town towards hysteria, and Erica races to work out which child’s terror may have called a monster into being. With the Order of St. George closing in and suspicion hardening around one girl, Erica has little time to uncover the truth before the town decides the only way to stop the monster is to sacrifice a child.
