Chuck Warren died tragically at the old abandoned mill, but Paz Espino knows it was no accident โ there's a monster under the town, and she's determined to kill it before anyone else gets hurt. She'll need the help of her crew โ inseparable friends, bound by a childhood pact stronger than diamonds, distance or death โ to hunt it down. But she's up against a greater force of evil than she ever could have imagined.

Reviews
"Cerilli delivers a stunning debut in this gripping paranormal horror novel about queer teens growing up in a community that doesn’t accept them and the insidious danger of apathy." —STARRED REVIEW, Publishers Weekly"Experimental, metaphorical, and poetic, this quiet novel is for thoughtful readers not averse to horror themes." —Booklist
"Cerilli does a masterful job of creating a memorable setting. . . . It is hard to believe that Lockjaw is Matteo L. Cerilli’s debut novel. Readers will look forward to many more to come! Highly recommended." —CM: Canadian Review of Materials Expand reviews
