It’s the summer of 86, and school is out in the little Gulf Coast town of Harbor Bluff. Maximum Overdrive is at the cinema, Rampage is all the rage at the arcade, and the only rule from parents is to be home in time for supper. Things couldn’t be simpler or better . . . until kids begin disappearing while playing a children’s game called Two Minutes with the Devil. This is a story that revolves around a group of friends whose lives go from bikes, treehouses, and first crushes to coming face to face with an unimaginable horror. One part Stand by Me, one part Stranger Things, Two Minutes with the Devil is one helluva fun-yet-heartbreaking thriller, a throwback to when things were good . . . and evil. “Matt Micheli continues to stake his claim in the horror genre with his latest book, Two Minutes with the Devil. This gripping coming-of-age tale set in the 1980s has all the chills and thrills you could ask for! Equal parts horror and heart, it could very well stand its ground next to classics like King’s It and McCammon’s Boy’s Life.” Ronald Kelly, author of Fear and The Essential Sick Stuff
