Bøger af Kim Liggett

”Som en blanding af Tjenerindens fortælling, The Hunger Games og Fluernes herre." PUBLSHERS WEEKLY"Stemningsfuld, smuk og åndeløst spændende.” GOODREADSGarner Sogn mener man, at de unge piger har magt over mændene. Man tror, at de udskiller et magtfuldt elskovsmiddel gennem huden, når de står på tærsklen til at blive kvinder. Derfor bliver alle 16-årige piger forvist – sendt ud i den vilde natur for at få afløb for deres magiske kræfter, inden de igen bliver lukket ind i civilisationen. Men langt fra alle vender hjem i live. Efterhånden som Tierneys eget dydens år nærmer sig, indser hun, at det ikke kun er de brutale forhold i skoven, som hun og de andre piger skal frygte. End ikke de jægere, der står på spring for at fange dem og sælge dem på det sorte marked. Den største trussel af alle kan meget vel vise sig at ligge på lur mellem pigerne selv.

Kim Liggett's The Unfortunates is a haunting tale of privilege, guilt, and redemption from the author of the Bram Stoker Award winner, The Last HarvestWhen seventeen-year-old senator's son Grant Tavish is involved in a fatal accident, all he wants to do is face the consequences of what he's done. But those consequences never come, even if headlines of "affluenza" do. The truth soon becomes clear: due to his father's connections, Grant is going to get away with murder. As a family tradition approaches, a cave excursion on the Appalachian Trail, Grant seizes the opportunity to take justice into his own hands by staging an accident and never coming back. But before he has a chance to enact his plans, the cave system collapses, trapping him miles beneath the surface with four other teens from much less fortunate circumstances. As they struggle to survive, they share their innermost secrets and fears, and just when it seems they might be on track to finding a way out, they realize...There's something else down there. And it's hunting them.
