British Fantasy Award, Strand Critics Award. Locus and Hugo Award finalist. Film adaptation with Elisabeth Moss on Apple TV+. During the American Great Depression, Harper Curtis finds an unusual House... A House that allows Harper to travel through time and turns him into an elusive serial killer killer. Only one of Harper's victims survived, but he doesn't know it yet. Her name is Kirby, and she begins her own investigation. A dizzying confrontation between hunter and hunted in various eras of the 20th century! “The premise is pure Stephen King, but Beukes gives it an intricate, lyrical spin in his own unique style.” – Time “I recommend it without reservation.” – Joe Hill “Very smart... and very sassy. Beukes masterfully navigates the intersections between the realistic and the fantastical, and those are always my favorite moments in these types of stories. Not the strangeness (which in itself is magnificent and very extensive here), but the transition to it. The ultimate moment." – William Gibson “Totally original, beautifully written, and I have to say it gave me goosebumps. This is something special." – Tana French “Beukes is so talented—capable of wit, darkness and emotion on the same page—that a blockbuster seems inevitable…. "The Shining Ones marks her emergence as a major author of popular fiction." – USA Today “Chilling crime thriller meets sci-fi action and historical fiction.” – Entertainment Weekly
