A HUGE BESTSELLER IN CHINA, BAD KIDS IS THE DARK SUSPENSE THRILLER WHERE NO ONE IS INNOCENT ______ You cant choose your in-laws. One beautiful morning, Zhang Dongsheng pushes his wealthy in-laws off a remote mountain. Its the perfect crime. Or so he thinks. For Zhang did not expect that teenager Chaoyang and his friends would catch him in the act. An opportunity for blackmail presents itself and the kids start down a dark path that will lead to the unravelling of all their lives. Dark, heart-stopping and violent, Bad Kids is the suspense thriller that has taken China by storm, proving that anyone has what it takes to become a killer. ______ HERES WHAT READERS ARE SAYING ABOUT BAD KIDS The twists kept getting darker and darker. Not for the faint of heart. A murderous society where everyone is on the take, and no ones innocent. A fabulously dark suspense novel. When I initially read the synopsis for this book, I knew I wanted to read it and it did not disappoint... totally different and fresh It was fast paced, twisty and unpredictable and kept me guessing. Just when I thought it was the best it could be, it got better. Honestly one of the best books I have read. This was an incredibly suspenseful thriller that I couldnt put down... I would recommend to anyone as the plot, characters and pacing were perfect The kind of twisty, jet-fuelled thriller that explodes on page one and has you happily abandoning work, sleep, and life as you race to the stunning end A suspenseful, gripping cat-and-mouse game that never lets the reader go. Unpredictable twists keep coming as the darkness inside various characters spills out more and more with every chapter

Oh my goodness, this was such a page-turner! I had so much empathy for the main kid, Chaoyang, and was really rooting for him, despite him being a multiple murderer. I also loved the way it left you hanging at the end. The murders and set ups were just so fiendishly logical and rational, proper psychopath stuff. It was nicely knitted together in a classic detective story/thriller way. The shocking deaths lend themselves to becoming a film. Bangin'

TW: death of a parent, murder/death, bullying, mention of child sexual abuse

Teacher, Zhang Dongsheng, takes his wealthy in-laws on a trip to a remote mountain location & promptly pushes them off the side. It seems like the perfect crime, but he doesn't realise that three teenagers caught him committing the crime on camera.

First one down for #AugustARCs @clwojick

OutsmartYourShelf This is a book with a well-written plot with lots of twists, but the final one is great. The ending was a little disappointing, however, as I hate open-ended conclusions where you are not sure what happens after the end scene. 3.5🌟

My thanks to NetGalley & publishers, Pushkin Press/Vertigo, for the opportunity to read an ARC. #NetGalley
