Camp Kinross blurb:It’s the 1990s – best friends Maggie and Tom have been sent to summer camp for the first time, despite being almost too old for it. They are immediately immersed into a picturesque world straight out of the movies, filled with competitive social circles, weird traditions, and classic camp activities… but also a dark past. And then there are the Lifers – a tight knit group of campers who have been chosen to stay at Camp Kinross for the entire summer. When kids are mysteriously sent home for “breaking the rules” without much explanation, Maggie must uncover the truth about the camp, while also navigating fraying friendships, new crushes, youthful schemes, and the typical anxieties that rattle around in the teenage brain. In doing so, she learns that hidden abilities can often be buried deep, and that trusting others doesn’t always result in getting burned.Are campers really being sent home, or is a more sinister evil at work at the seemingly perfect Camp Kinross? Will Maggie and Tom become Lifers to buy more time to figure out what’s happening? Can they expose the truth before it’s too late?

About Holly Louise Perry:Holly Louise Perry grew up in rural Massachusetts, and now resides in a small town in Connecticut. When she’s not writing, Holly’s probably on a road-trip with her family, listening to The Beatles, or thinking about where she should get her next ice cream. Camp Kinross is her first novel.Visit: <a href="https://perrylanepress.com/shop/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://perrylanepress.com/shop/</a>
