Kristopher Triana Książki

Kim White jest szalenie popularną cheerleaderką. Śliczna, zdrowa, a do tego pochodzi z bajecznie bogatej rodziny. Dostaje wszystko, czego mogłaby zapragnąć typowa szesnastolatka. I ma tego po dziurki w nosie. W poszukiwaniu czegokolwiek, co wyrwałoby ją z natrętnych myśli o samobójstwie, postanawia stracić dziewictwo, skuszona powszechną opinią, że to zdarzenie, które odmienia życie. Ale Kim nie chce tego zrobić w ten sam sposób, w jaki robią to inne dziewczyny. Uwodzi jednego ze swoich nauczycieli w nadziei, że dla zabawy zrujnuje mu życie. W ten oto sposób Kim wpada w sadystyczną spiralę manipulacji, poświęcając całą swoją energię, by zniszczyć żywoty wszystkich wokół niej. Wkrótce jednak zwykłe wbijanie noży w plecy przestaje jej wystarczać, nurkuje więc jeszcze głębiej, w odmęty sabotażu, przemocy, a nawet morderstwa. Kiedy Kim dowiaduje się, że jest w ciąży ze swoim nauczycielem, ogarnia ją nowe szaleństwo. Dociera do niej bowiem, że istnieje tylko jeden sposób, aby nasycić głód jej dzieciątka…

Super fans. Groupies. Stalkers. These people will give anything for the idols they worship, be they rock stars, actor, or authors. Or even serial killers. Lori's obsession is with Edmund Cox, who was convicted of butchering more than twenty women. She will do anything to get close to him, so when gives her a task, she accepts. She has no idea of the horror that awaits her. Edmund says she must go to his cabin in the woods and retrieve a key to deliver to a mysterious figure known only as The River Man. She brings along her sister, and the trip becomes a surreal nightmare, one that digs up Lori's personal demons, the ones she feels bonds her to Edmund. Soon she will learn The River Man is not quite fact or folklore, and definitely not human . . . at least not anymore.
