A high-stakes hide-and-seek competition turns deadly in this dark supernatural thriller from New York Times bestselling author Kiersten White, perfect for fans of Stephen King and SQUID GAME.

The challenge: spend a week hiding in an abandoned amusement park and don't get caught.

The prize: enough money to change everything.

Even though everyone is desperate to win - to seize their dream futures or escape their haunting pasts - Mack feels sure that she can beat her competitors. All she has to do is hide, and she's an expert at that.

It's the reason she's alive, and her family isn't.

But as the people around her begin disappearing one by one, Mack realizes this competition is more sinister than even she imagined, and that together might be the only way to survive.

Fourteen competitors. Seven days. Everywhere to hide, but nowhere to run.

Come out, come out, wherever you are.

Review

A marvellously creepy thrill ride of a book that keeps twisting until the very end ― Karen M. McManus, internationally bestselling author of One of Us Is Lying

There is nothing creepier than an abandoned amusement park, especially when Kiersten White is writing about it. Each character is astonishingly real and the pacing is spot-on. This book held me captive, I couldn't put it down. ― Samantha Downing, Internationally Bestselling author of My Lovely Wife

Equal parts hell-ride thriller and American fable, Kiersten White's HIDE runs you through a sinister child's game set in a nightmare amusement park, and it does so with gleeful, fiendish delight. I hung onto this book with bloodless knuckles, and I adored every spine-chilling second ― Chuck Wendig, Sunday Times bestselling author

Hide is a claustrophobic thriller choked with weeds, rust, and rot. The game here is not what it seems. The hunt is swift and merciless, and the fear is primal and bestial. Don't pick up this book unless you have time to read it all in one anxious sitting. ― Stephanie Perkins, New York Times bestselling author of There’s Someone Inside Your House

An enthralling, high-energy thriller . . . White proves she has a finger on the pulse of millennial horror. ― Publishers Weekly, Starred Review --This text refers to the hardcover edition.

Disappointing

Was excited to buy this following the reviews and recommendations. Sorry to be negative but this was poor. Neither scary nor exciting. Poor character development and ridiculous plot. Save your money.

I always find it hard to start to get hooked on books and this was not the exception. In the middle I was intrigued and got me reading more and more but I was really disappointed by the ending.
I enjoyed the multiple points of views in the narrative but some things did not make sense to me.
It wasn’t bad or good, just a solid Ok

Nothing new here, but the descriptions of the 'arena' were decent.

Great book

Fast-paced and creepy

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 24 May 2022

First off, this book needs to be made into a film. Immediately. It was so incredibly cinematic and gave me real The Cabin in the Woods vibes, which is one of my favourite horror films.

Despite the premise, this was more than just a gory fright-fest though, it was a brilliantly crafted character-driven book, and White does a fantastic job at creating a whole host of seemingly disparate characters - all with a common goal - and gradually drawing out their pasts. Whilst some were more likeable than others, they each had their rationales for taking part in the competition.

Split into day-by-day chapters, the tension ramps up as the competitors begin to find out more about the game, why they might be there and who or what might be hunting them. But the book is as much about the characters searching within themselves for hidden strengths as it is finding out who may or may not survive the competition.

After the initial setting-the-scene, this was a fast-paced, real heart-in-the-mouth thriller, with a supernatural element. It was really creepy and has already been living in my head since I finished it. In fact, I had a dream about it last night 😱

I absolutely loved this book. If you're a fan of thrillers, horrors, the supernatural, or just well-written character-driven books I would highly recommend it.

I love a horror book set in an abandoned amusement park - good but not great 4*

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 24 May 2022

Mack is the only survivor from the day her father turned family annihilator, killing his wife, her parents, & his youngest daughter, Maddie. Mack only survived as she stayed hidden for hours & her father committed suicide before the police arrived. She has lived a quiet life since then, tending to blend into the background going unnoticed, when a woman at the shelter where she is currently staying offers her the chance to change her life. There is a challenge for 14 contestants to basically play Hide-n-Seek in an abandoned amusement park for a week. Last one standing gets the prize money of $50,000. Mack has nothing to lose so decides to try, & even against her own better judgment she meets & makes several friends amongst the other contestants. The first night back at camp, two contestants are missing & the coordinator, Linda , says that they left straight away, but on following days when a contestant finds what looks like blood smears & others hear a panicked scream, they wonder if the game is being played for keeps.

There are a lot of characters at first in this book, but we hear from all of them at least once. The 14 contestants are from disparate background including media influencer, game designer, ex-military, failed author, even one who has been expelled from a religious cult. There's also the duplicitous Jaden who, along with Beautiful Ava, decides to cheat & try & get the other contestants caught out. Mack is a bit bland & I don't really have an opinion about her, but I liked Other Ava (there are two characters called Ava & the second one is referred to by the others as Beautiful Ava) who left the army after an accident left her badly injured, Brandon who is a sweet guy who lost his remaining family recently & has been struggling & just wants to make friends, & LeGrand who wants the money to get treatment for his critically ill sister.

I thought this would perhaps be a 'serial killer stalking the group' type thriller but the story is actually a little more involved than that. I'm not sure why abandoned places such as amusement parks hold such fascination for us, but they are reliably eerie places. There are a lot of deaths but a lot of them happen 'off screen', & I do think it could have been creepier & scarier. The first half is great but it seems to flag a little in the middle as I found my attention wandering a couple of times, which means I can't really award it top marks, so I rate this 4 stars - entertaining but not as creepy/scary as I had hoped.

My thanks to NetGalley & publishers, Random House UK/Cornerstone/Del Rey, for the opportunity to read an ARC. I am voluntarily giving an honest review.
