They rip, they tear, the feed, and you never come back again.

The Feathered Cob Music Festival is usually Lenora "Lenny" Ragno's favorite weekend, but not anymore. Avoiding a public performance is about as impossible as hiding from Jeb, her longtime crush, who she's been dodging since she blew their duet last year. She thinks facing him will be the scariest part of the festival, but when one of their friends talks everyone into trying astral projection, Lenny catches the eye of a demonic entity that marks her as its own.

Whenever it wants, the demon can pluck Lenny from her reality and transport her to a hellish between-world, haunted by its countless, gruesome victims. If she doesn't want to become one of them, she must discover the nature of the demon's hold on her and remove it. But how can she defeat a literal demon when she can't even get over her personal ones?

Also by Jessica Bayliss: TEN AFTER CLOSING

TEN AFTER CLOSING chronicles the events before and after a hold-up at Cafe Flores, during which two teens from very different backgrounds are held hostage and explore a relationship that might have been, all while scheming to stay alive. Sometimes it takes the unimaginable to learn who we really are.

"Told in alternating perspectives and timelines, TEN AFTER CLOSING is one unnerving thriller that's destined to make its mark."
