Every Hunter Is Hunted

release date: Jun 23, 2026
Every Hunter Is Hunted
From the world of Barry Lyga’s New York Times bestselling I Hunt Killers trilogy comes a thrilling adult mystery about the hunt for a monstrous serial killer. Brides are being murdered on their wedding nights. Soaked in blood and draped in lace. With nothing left behind to help them find the killer, the FBI is at an impasse. Their only, desperate hope is to convince Jasper Dent, the son of two serial killers and a former teen prodigy at hunting down such monsters, to emerge from his self-imposed exile. When he was a teenager, both of Jasper’s parents were members of a secret society of serial killers. Today, his father is in prison, and his mother is in a coma, both results of their final confrontation with Jasper years ago. Now wealthy from a bestselling memoir about his parents, Jasper still carries the scars from their parenting—and the uncanny, unwanted ability to understand killers that they instilled in him. Jasper wants nothing more than to hide from his past – cash his royalty checks and never think about murder and blood again. But he knows the only way to find any meaning or redemption in his life is to face his demons once again. His skills rusty, his confidence shaken, Jasper races against a ticking clock, frantically seeking to solve the impossible mystery before more women meet a horrific end.

Unedited: Mike and Phil and All the World
The companion piece to Mike and Phile and All the World in all its +1,000 page glory. This is a book. It is written by Barry Lyga. Yes, we know it''s a very long book. We tried to get him to cut it, but he wouldn''t. So there was nothing we could do about it. We understand if the length turns you off. A long book like this one represents a commitment, and if it isn''t good, you''ll feel like you''ve wasted your time and your money. Still, we published it because we think it''s a good book. Could it be shorter? Maybe. That''s a very difficult call. Each person will have his or her own opinion. Some will read it and think, "It could have been shorter." Others will think, "It was just right." And maybe some people will wish it was longer. Isn''t that the highest compliment you can pay a book, to wish it would never end? Usually, this text here (it''s called "flap copy") is sexy marketing-talk, designed to get you to buy the book. Did you know that most people look at the cover, then the back cover, then the flap copy, and only then do they bother even to flip to a page in the book? So you probably haven''t even read any part of the book yet, but you might decide to buy or not buy it anyway. Without having read a word of it. So, we''ll just say this: This book is a love story. We hope you''ll give it a shot.

Time Will Tell
A young-adult thriller ricocheting between the bigotry of the past and present as teens unravel their parents’ secrets. Perfect for fans of One of Us is Lying. Four teens have dug up the time capsule that their parents buried in 1986 and never bothered to recover. But in addition to the expected ephemera of mixtapes, Walkmans, photographs, letters, toys, and assorted junk, Elayah, Liam, Marcie, and Jorja discover something sinister: a hunting knife stained with blood and wrapped with a note. “I'm sorry. I didn’t mean to kill anyone." As the action dramatically alternates between the present day and 1986, the mystery unfolds and the sins of the past echo into today. The teens haven't just unearthed a time capsule: they’ve also dug up pain and secrets that someone—maybe one of their own parents—is willing to kill for.

Mio padre serial killer
William Cornelius “Billy” Dent è il serial killer più famoso d’America. Ha ammazzato più di cento persone, meritandosi il soprannome di Macellaio. Jazz ha diciassette anni ed è suo figlio. Fin da bambino suo padre gli ha insegnato i trucchi del mestiere: come scegliere una preda, come riconoscere un poliziotto, come disarmarlo, come eliminarlo. Ma Billy è stato arrestato prima di costringerlo a mettere in pratica i suoi insegnamenti. Sono passati quattro anni da allora. Il Macellaio è rinchiuso in un carcere di massima sicurezza e Jazz cerca di condurre una vita normale, tenendo a bada la voce del padre che continua a risuonare dentro la sua testa, chiedendogli di fare quello per cui è stato messo al mondo: uccidere. Ed è la più grande paura di Jazz, questa. Essere davvero come suo padre, non poter più trattenere la sua parte oscura. Se non fosse per la sua ragazza Connie, per il suo amico Howie e per lo sceriffo G. William – lo stesso che ha scovato Billy – forse Jazz sarebbe già crollato. Soprattutto quando il serial killer che si fa chiamare l’Impressionista comincia a lasciare cadaveri a poca distanza da casa sua e la gente del paese teme che il responsabile sia Jazz. Per togliere i sospetti da sé a Jazz rimane solo una cosa da fare: utilizzare gli insegnamenti del padre per dare la caccia non a una vittima inerme, ma al vero assassino.
