I Was a Teenage Slasher

"This fictional confession set in smalltown Texas, 1989, presents as a stream-of-consciousness thriller through the eyes of a teen serial killer. Tolly Driver is a good kid—or at least he was. Now, with the help of his best friend Amber, a film buff with enough knowledge to guide him through the gore, he might just have a chance of getting away with it. It is, the author told Publishers Weekly , full of“slashers and hair metal, oil and cotton, trucks and tractors, dirt and sun—it’s where and when I grew up. And, yeah, there’s blood and screaming in this one, regret and longing, but more important, there’s a friendship that’s deeper than it has any right to be—that’s stronger than blades and death and time.”"
