Book excerpt: Sadistic serial killer couple David and Catherine Birnie claimed the lives of four young Perth women in a brutal rape and murder spree. But there was a fifth victim - a young woman whose unlikely escape from the killers' lair brought their reign of terror to an end, and who has remained silent about her ordeal for thirty years since. This is her story. Kate Moir was a bright and pretty eighteen-year-old when she was snatched off the street by David and Catherine Birnie, a cold, callous and deadly husband and wife team who had viciously raped and murdered at least four other women in Perth. But Kate wasn't going to go without a fight. Taken to their home, raped and held at knifepoint, Kate never stopped calculating the odds of her survival and doing everything she could to ensure she left evidence at the house. She escaped the following morning. It is extremely rare, almost unheard of, for a person to escape from the clutches of a serial killers once they have been marked for death. Serial killers are rarely caught and often their crimes remain unsolved or, alternately, are only discovered after their death. Having remained silent about being 'the fifth woman' for thirty years, and with the possibility of release for Catherine Birnie looming, Kate Moir is finally ready to tell her story.

Book excerpt: Sami Ellis’s Dead Girls Walking is a shocking, spine-chilling YA horror slasher about a girl searching for her dead mother’s body at the summer camp that was once her serial killer father’s home—perfect for fans of Friday the 13th and White Smoke. Temple Baker knows that evil runs in her blood. Her father is the North Point Killer, an infamous serial killer known for how he marked each of his victims with a brand. He was convicted for murdering 20 people and was the talk of countless true crime blogs for years. Some say he was possessed by a demon. Some say that they never found all his victims. Some say that even though he’s now behind bars, people are still dying in the woods. Despite everything though, Temple never believed that her dad killed her mom. But when he confesses to that crime while on death row, she has no choice but to return to his old hunting grounds to try see if she can find a body and prove it. Turns out, the farm that was once her father’s hunting grounds and her home has been turned into an overnight camp for queer, horror-obsessed girls. So Temple poses as a camp counselor to go digging in the woods. While she’s not used to hanging out with girls her own age and feels ambivalent at best about these true crime enthusiasts, she tries her best to fit in and keep her true identity hidden. But when a girl turns up dead in the woods, she fears that one of her father’s “fans” might be mimicking his crimes. As Temple tries to uncover the truth and keep the campers safe, she comes to realize that there may be something stranger and more sinister at work—and that her father may not have been the only monster in these woods.
