About Feral:

Coming from HarperCollins August 26, 2014.

It’s too late for you. You’re dead.

Those words float through Claire Cain’s head as she lies broken and barely alive after a brutal beating. And the words continue to haunt her months later, in the relentless, terrifying nightmares that plague her sleep. So when her father is offered a teaching sabbatical in another state, Claire is hopeful that getting out of Chicago, away from the things that remind her of what she went through, will offer a way to start anew.

But when she arrives in Peculiar, Missouri, Claire quickly realizes something is wrong—the town is brimming with hidden dangers and overrun by feral cats. And her fears are confirmed when a popular high school girl, Serena Sims, is suddenly found dead in the icy woods behind the school. While everyone is quick to say Serena died in an accident, Claire knows there’s more to it—for she was the one who found Serena, battered and most certainly dead, surrounded by the town’s feral cats.

Now Claire vows to learn the truth about what happened, but the closer she gets to uncovering the mystery, the closer she also gets to discovering a frightening reality about herselfand the damage she truly sustained in that Chicago alley. . . .

With an eerie setting and heart-stopping twists and turns, Holly Schindler weaves a gripping story that will make you question everything you think you know.

 There are so many little things I love about this cover...

1. The tagline combined with the title allude to the weird feral cat business in the description

2. The tagline plus the creepy bluriness of the cover evoke a sinister atmosphere. It kind of reminds of the blurry scenes in movies when a character is panicking and trying to escape something threatening. 

3. The author byline and the tagline are in pink, which I think will really pop on the finished book!

What do you think? Like? Dislike? Are you as excited to read this one as I am!? Be sure to add it on Goodreads too!
