A small town driven by oil and cotton--and a place where everyone knows everyone else's business. So it goes for Tolly Driver, a good kid with more potential than application, seventeen, and about to be cursed to kill for revenge. Here Stephen Graham Jones explores the Texas he grew up in, and shared sense of unfairness of being on the outside through the slasher horror Jones loves, but from the perspective of the killer, Tolly, writing his own autobiography. Find yourself rooting for a killer in this \"playful, self-aware, and remarkably gory horror novel\" (\u003ci\u003eThe New York Times\u003c\/i\u003e).\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eStephen Graham Jones is the \u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e bestselling author of \u003ci\u003eThe Only Good Indians\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eMy Heart Is a Chainsaw\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eI Was a Teenage Slasher\u003c\/i\u003e.
