A chilling horror short story from award-winning author, Barry John Hutchison.
School has broken up and summer is finally here. Fifteen-year-old Laura has plans for six whole weeks of Skyrim and at least one Batman DVD marathon. But when her neighbour and long-time crush, Cethan, takes her into the woods to show her something he has found there, both their lives take a turn for the terrifying...
Barry John Hutchison (writing as Barry Hutchison) is the author of several novels for children and teens, including the award-winning Invisible Fiends horror series. THE BONE HOUSE is the first in a series of short stories published exclusively in ebook format.
Reviews of THE BONE HOUSE:
"If there's one thing teen fiction needs right now, it's an injection of something fresh. And by fresh, I mean sliced open, raw and bleeding. Barry's Bone House is exactly that: a teenage serial killer played out with echoes of Texas Chainsaw Massacre. What's not to love?" - David Gatward, author of DOOM RIDER and THE DEAD series.
"The Bone House takes horror and plunges it into the cold depths of insanity. Read this, and get ready to sleep with the lights on." - Tommy Donbavand, author of SCREAM STREET

Thanks for posting this link. Has anyone read it yet and do you think it's suitable for a nearly 15 year-old girl? It says something in the review about teenage fiction but it also looks quite scary. Any ideas appreciated.0

My 15 year old niece read it without any problems, so she should be fine. Have a read yourself first if you're worried.0
