(Off-site) Thrill Seekers Book Club

A book club for fans of mysteries, thrillers and adventures--both fiction and nonfiction. 

On May 31, 2014, two twelve-year-old girls in Wisconsin attempted to stab their classmate to death. This violence was extreme, but what seemed even more frightening was that they committed their crime under the influence of a figure born by the internet: the so-called "Slenderman." Another even more urgent aspect of the story, that the children involved suffered from undiagnosed mental illnesses, often went overlooked in coverage of this case. This book tells that full story for the first time in deeply researched detail, using court transcripts, police reports, individual reporting, and exclusive interviews. This book is both a riveting, page-turning true crime story and a search for justice.
