Stephen Graham Jones is one of speculative fiction’s bestselling authors and is beloved for his unique, potent blend of horror and cutting social commentary. His chart-topping novels to date include the modern classic The Only Good Indians, which tracks four childhood friends stalked by a sinister secret – and something else – on a Blackfeet reservation in Montana. (Jones is himself an enrolled member of the Blackfeet Tribe.) Both The Only Good Indians and Jones’ novella Night of the Mannequins, released the same year, received the Bram Stoker Award and Shirley Jackson Award in their respective categories. His latest novels include I Was A Teenage Slasher, an homage to horror tropes where the killer takes center stage, as well as the thrilling finale to his The Indian Lake Trilogy. The Angel of Indian Lake concludes the saga started with My Heart is a Chainsaw and continued in Don’t Fear the Reaper. Paste Magazine praises it as “a determinedly feminist reexamination of horror’s Final Girl.”
