<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Romance, friendship, and dark, bone-chilling fear fill the pages of this "genuine and truly eerie" (<i>RT Book Reviews</i>) debut in the spirit of <i>Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children</i>.</b> <p/>Twelve years ago Stella and Jeanie vanished while picking strawberries. Stella returned minutes later, with no memory of what happened. Jeanie was never seen or heard from again. <p/>Now Stella is seventeen, and she's over it. She's the lucky one who survived, and sure, the case is still cloaked in mystery--and it's her small town's ugly legacy--but Stella is focused on the coming summer. She's got a great best friend, a hookup with an irresistibly crooked smile, and two months of beach days stretching out before her. <p/>Then along comes a corpse, a little girl who washes up in an ancient cemetery after a mudslide, and who has red hair just like Jeanie did. Suddenly memories of that haunting day begin to return, and when Stella discovers that other red-headed girls have gone missing as well, she begins to suspect that something sinister is at work. <p/>And before the summer ends, Stella will learn the hard way that if you hunt for monsters, you will find them.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>[For] horror fans looking for a creepy thrill.-- "BCCB"<br><br>Delivers with a nicely suspenseful plot that builds to a crisis point. Intriguing all the way through.-- "Kirkus Reviews"<br><br>Genuine and truly eerie. Readers will be up all night finishing Sirowy's debut.-- "Romantic Times"<br><br>Leave[s] chills long after the last page.-- "Publishers Weekly"<br><br>Sirowy successfully weaves in an unnerving supernatural backstory, but the book's very human conclusion is far more frightening than any of the town's superstitions. A solid choice for horror fans, this novel will is a spook-tastic spine-tingler.-- "School Library Journal"<br><br>A small town legend, a missing redhead, a monster in the forest...Sirowy's The Creeping is a haunting, modern day folktale, in the darkest sense of the word. Fantastic.--April Genevieve Tucholke, author of Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea<br>
