Final girls : a novel
(Book)

"Previously published as a Dutton hardcover, July 2017" -- Title verso page.

"Ten years ago, college student Quincy Carpenter went on vacation with five friends and came back alone. In an instant, she became a member of a club no one wants to belong to-a group of similar massacre survivors known in the press as the Final Girls: Lisa, who lost nine sorority sisters to a college dropout's knife; Sam, who went up against the Sack Man during her shift at the Nightlight Inn; and now Quincy, who ran bleeding through the woods to escape Him. Despite the media's attempts, the girls never meet. Now Quincy is doing well-maybe even great, thanks to her Xanax prescription. She has a caring almost-fiancé, Jeff, and a therapeutic presence in Coop, the police officer who saved her life all those years ago. Her memory won't even allow her to recall the events of that night; the past is in the past. That is until Lisa is found dead in her bathtub, wrists slit, and Sam appears on Quincy's doorstep intent on making Quincy relive the past. And when new details about Lisa's death come to light, Quincy's life becomes a race against time as she tries to unravel Sam's truths from her lies-and remember what really happened at Pine Cottage, before what was started ten years ago is finished" -- Page 4 of cover.
