Screechers

By Shaelyn Zeitz

In her debut novel, Screechers, Shaelyn Zeitz takes readers on a creepy survival adventure through a post-apocalyptic world where monsters aren't always the scariest thing waiting in the darkness. Perfect for fans of R.L. Stine and the Last Kids on Earth series.

You're not alone in the dark...

It's been years since all the light in the world went out and the monsters appeared. Leena--along with her older sister, Phoebe, and younger brother, Talon--has no choice but to stay locked inside their house, with only Phoebe ever venturing out to find enough supplies to survive. The only thing that keeps the deadly shadows away is a strange, glowing substance called waterlight that Phoebe collects from the nearby lake. Without it, the darkness will close in and the monsters, called Screechers, will devour them.

When Phoebe disappears while on a supply run, Leena has no choice but to be the big sister now. But she quickly learns that being in charge isn't so simple. And when help appears in the form of an odd girl with a glowing umbrella and a quirky obsession with bees, Leena has to decide if she's willing to trust this new friend with her and her brother's safety. After all, in the cruel and cold outside world, trusting the wrong person means death.
