Catch our killer upcoming release: YA Novel Prep School for Serial Killers

Veteran author and actor Tara Platt is thrilled to be releasing a new title, her dark dystopian YA novel: Prep School for Serial Killers this fall.

In a war ravaged future, a boarding school cloisters and trains sociopathic children. When top student Anathema Blight finds a graduate’s hidden journal, she wonders if they’re simply students, or pawns in a much more dangerous game… and the final exam will be murder.

The positive reviews are already starting to roll in:

“Prep School for Serial Killers is a daring story of survival, betrayal, and self-discovery set amid an uncompromising vision of a dystopian future. Tara Platt's incisive narrative grabs the reader and doesn't let go from the first page to the book's thrilling (and bloody) conclusion. This is a wonderfully wild tale filled with twists and turns, shifting allegiances, a deeply layered mystery, and a cunning protagonist willing to do anything to survive.”

-       G. D. Falksen, author of Maiden of War, The Secret Life of Kitty Granger, and The Ouroboros Cycle

“Imagine a book where Hogwarts exists in The Hunger Games universe and its students have more in common with Villanelle from Killing Eve than Harry Potter––sound like fun? Then you’re gonna love the seriously bad ass mayhem of Tara Platt’s new novel, Prep School For Serial Killers. Platt has a real penchant for clever writing and dark humor…but it’s the way she makes you feel for the psychopathic, anti-heroine at the center of this maelstrom of murder that’ll truly break your heart.”

-        Amber Benson, author of The Witches of Echo Park, the  Calliope Reaper-Jones series, and actress from Buffy the Vampire Slayer

Platt has also written best-selling Voice-Over Voice Actor and follow-up Voice-Over Voice Actor: The Extended Edition, as well as kid’s book Relax Your Toes, and epistolary journal Zartana. Tara said, “This book is little different from my previous books. I couldn’t be more thrilled to share it with the world, and have the world meet Anathema. She is strong, fearless and powerful but also searching for answers; the perfect anti-heroine with just a touch of, y’know, murder on the side.”

The novel will be released September 1st in paperback, ebook and audiobook (as read by author Platt). So while we wait through this scorcher of a summer, we are dying to head back to school at the Prep School for Serial Killers this fall.
