$25.16 online at Bookshop.org
In 2014, twelve-year-olds Morgan Geyser and Anissa Weier stabbed classmate Bella Leutner in a Wisconsin suburb, believing they owed a sacrifice to the internet horror figure Slenderman. Morgan was living with undiagnosed early-onset schizophrenia; the girls were charged as adults. This account follows the crime, the overlooked mental illness at its center, and the surreal aftermath of jail and denial of treatment.
