"A whole lot of bloody fun with a serious message at its heart" CJ. Tudor
"Beautifully written and impossible to put down" Fiona Cummins
"This book is incredible! I can't recommend Heads Will Roll enough" William Hussey

----

Willow is in need of an escape.

A former sitcom star, she's been publicly shamed on the internet after posting something she really shouldn't have.

She checks in to Camp Castaway, an adults-only retreat based at an old campground in the woods.

It's the first night and the campers gather round the fire to tell some ghost stories. That's when Willow hears the tale of Knock Knock Nancy. A local urban legend about a witch, brutally beheaded in this very woodland.

They say her restless spirit knocks on doors late at night. If you answer, she'll take your head.

Willow doesn't believe in ghost stories. But the next day, a camper has vanished under mysterious circumstances. And then that evening, in her cabin, Willow hears it . . . .

Knock, Knock, Knock.

Bestselling authors are losing their heads over Josh Winning

"I really enjoyed the way Heads Will Roll plays with all the horror/slasher tropes, while also taking aim at the pitfalls of social media and cancel culture. A whole lot of bloody fun with a serious message at its heart" CJ Tudor

"I enjoyed Heads Will Roll, with its compelling, complex characters and inventiveness in how it engaged politically with its horrors" Paul Tremblay, author of Horror Movie

"This book is incredible! A gripping slice of 80s-inspired horror with a rattling good plot, terrific characters and zingy dialogue, and with something important to say about the world today. I can't recommend Heads Will Roll enough" William Hussey, award-winning author of Killing Jericho

"Between the frequent jump scares and blood spillage, Winning's story is packed with an awful lot of heart. Readers will be on the edges of their seats" Publishers Weekly

"Winning continues to write great horror novels, and this is a must-buy... a warm love letter to slasher flicks... [he] masterfully builds a story that will leave readers breathless... The pacing is frenetic and captivating" Library Journal

"A brilliantly fun horror concept, expertly executed by a blossoming talent in the genre - if you like your thrillers dark, funny, clever and bang up to date, then this is the book for you" Susi Holliday

"I really enjoyed this chilling book. A thrilling read, and it would make a great movie" Michael Wood, author of the DCI Matilda Darke series

Reviews
The perfect summer slasher... I am quickly becoming a devout follower [of Josh Winning].

Winning utilises the best jump-scare slasher tropes to create a thrilling and fun classic horror story with a modern touch * Culture Fly *
