What to expect

Brought to you by Penguin.

A high-stakes hide-and-seek competition turns deadly in this dark supernatural thriller from New York Times bestselling author Kiersten White, perfect for fans of Stephen King and SQUID GAME.

The challenge: spend a week hiding in an abandoned amusement park and don't get caught.

The prize: enough money to change everything.

Even though everyone is desperate to win - to seize their dream futures or escape their haunting pasts - Mack feels sure that she can beat her competitors. All she has to do is hide, and she's an expert at that.

It's the reason she's alive, and her family isn't.

But as the people around her begin disappearing one by one, Mack realizes this competition is more sinister than even she imagined, and that together might be the only way to survive.

Fourteen competitors. Seven days. Everywhere to hide, but nowhere to run.

Come out, come out, wherever you are.

Critics Review

A marvellously creepy thrill ride of a book that keeps twisting until the very end

Karen M. McManus, internationally bestselling author of One of Us Is Lying

There is nothing creepier than an abandoned amusement park, especially when Kiersten White is writing about it. Each character is astonishingly real and the pacing is spot-on. This book held me captive, I couldn’t put it down.

Samantha Downing, Internationally Bestselling author of My Lovely Wife

Equal parts hell-ride thriller and American fable, Kiersten White’s HIDE runs you through a sinister child’s game set in a nightmare amusement park, and it does so with gleeful, fiendish delight. I hung onto this book with bloodless knuckles, and I adored every spine-chilling second

Chuck Wendig, Sunday Times bestselling author

Hide is a claustrophobic thriller choked with weeds, rust, and rot. The game here is not what it seems. The hunt is swift and merciless, and the fear is primal and bestial. Don’t pick up this book unless you have time to read it all in one anxious sitting.

Stephanie Perkins, New York Times bestselling author of There's Someone Inside Your House

An enthralling, high-energy thriller . . . White proves she has a finger on the pulse of millennial horror.

Publishers Weekly, Starred Review

Haunting, startling, unrelenting, and unexpectedly heartbreaking, HIDE draws you inexorably in among the thorns and rust, where the monsters are both intimately familiar and horrifyingly unfathomable.

Delilah S. Dawson, New York Times-bestselling author of The Violence

Guaranteed to be THE book of the summer. Cinematic in scope, breathless in suspense, this book is a rollercoaster of pitch-perfect horror.

Eliza Jane Brazier, author of If I Disappear and Good Rich People

White holds no punches in this brilliantly executed thrill ride. Every twist and turn horrified and delighted me in equal measure. This book was so damn fun!

Erin A. Craig, New York Times bestselling author of House of Salt and Sorrows

Luring us into its maze with hints of wrongness, Hide leads us into a nightmare game that escalates from dread to supernatural terror and breathless suspense – a compulsive read you won’t want to put down.

Ramsey Campbell, author of The Hungry Moon
