Terrifying, tender, and unflinchingly honest.

Old Wounds is a gripping exploration of gender, sacrifice and the real monsters we're running from. * Lex Croucher, author of GWEN AND ART ARE NOT IN LOVE * Had me on the edge of my seat. * Bill Wood, author of LET'S SPLIT UP * Wholly original, endlessly subversive and genuinely terrifying, Old Wounds is doing something completely fresh in contemporary horror. * Laura Steven, author of EVERY EXQUISITE THING * Old Wounds is a riveting, spine-chilling horror story that will shred your nerves and shatter your heart in the best and worst ways.

While violent and spine-tinglingly creepy on the surface, Kisner's debut is also a hopeful story of connection and community, and a fiery ode to the trans youth who must fight for survival in a society set against them. * Publishers Weekly * The action-packed narrative frequently cuts between scenes and characters, creating a filmlike rhythm that propels readers forward. This work shines a spotlight on transgender people in a genre in which they are underrepresented; it puts Max and Erin through the worst but ultimately empowers them. An ode to the strength of trans kids, in the face of all kinds of terror. * Kirkus * This smartly executed, propulsive thriller works on multiple levels: as a chilling and violent creature-feature with folk horror elements and as a painfully honest portrayal of trans people's everyday fight for survival. * Booklist *
