13 Months Haunted: A Novel [Hardcover]

From Dead Eleven author Jimmy Juliano, a twisty, edge-of-your-seat novel about a unique haunting in the early 2000s

Piper Lowery, a public library clerk in charge of liaising with the local middle school, can tell right away there’s something strange about the new girl in eighth grade. Avery Wallace won’t touch any kind of technology, not even the computers at the library, and her mother comes to school with her every day, refusing to leave her side—not even when Avery uses the restroom.

And then there are the rumors, the whispers Piper hears from kids in the hallway and parents around town: Avery’s mother is a witch. Her sister and father were killed by something supernatural. A strange virus killed them.

Seeing how isolated and lonely Avery is, Piper befriends her but quickly realizes it might just be the worst decision she’s ever made. Because there’s something dark inside Avery Wallace, and it’s spreading . . . Brilliantly conceived and executed, this one will leave you nostalgic for the days of dial-up internet, AOL Instant Messenger (AIM), and Napster. —Criminal Element

Juliano delivers a fun, nostalgic horror tale…13 Months Haunted immediately transports readers back in time, with dial-up internet, early coding, and Napster and 1990s–2000s music references. —Booklist

“Inventive…Juliano’s premise is fresh, the central puzzle is intriguing, and a present-day frame narrative told by one of Piper’s distant cousins raises the stakes.” —Publishers Weekly
