Und bald gerät auch die 17-jährige Quinn ins Visier des Clowns. Ausgezeichnet mit dem Bram Stoker Award in der Kategorie Bester Jugendroman.

Adam Cesare Bücher
Adam Cesare schreibt Erzählungen, die in den beklemmenden Tiefen des psychologischen Horrors und der Spannung verwurzelt sind. Sein Schreibstil zeichnet sich durch eine spürbare Atmosphäre und die unheimliche Fähigkeit aus, die beunruhigenden Strömungen des Alltagslebens einzufangen. Cesare's Geschichten tauchen häufig in die Grenzbereiche der menschlichen Psyche ein und untersuchen, wie Individuen mit der Furcht umgehen, die knapp unter der Oberfläche lauert. Sein Ansatz im Horrorgenre zollt seinem Erbe Tribut und bietet gleichzeitig eine ausgeprägt moderne Sensibilität.

It's an all-new horror classic about what happens when the truth is the last thing we want to believe, from Bram Stoker Award-winner and master of thrills and chills, horror legend Adam Cesare. After barely making it out of the Kettle Springs cornfields alive, Quinn's first year away at college should be safe and easy. All she wants is to be normal again. But instead, Quinn finds that her past won't leave her alone when she becomes the focus of online conspiracy theories that claim the Kettle Springs Massacre never happened. It's a deranged but relentless fantasy, and there's nothing Quinn can do to get people to hear the truth--not even on her own campus or in her own dorm room. So when a murderous clown attacks Quinn at a frat party while another goes after her father in Kettle Springs at the same time, Quinn realizes that the facts alone are never going to save her. Her only option is to go back into the cornfields, back where the nightmare began, to set the record straight the only way she knows how. Because when the truth gets lost in the lies, that's when people start to die. Clown in a Cornfield was 2020's Bram Stoker Award Winner for Superior Achievement in a Young Adult Novel.
