The June Boys by Court Stevens

The June Boys by Court Stevens


The Gemini Thief could be anyone.

Your father, your mother, your best friend’s crazy uncle.

Some country music star’s deranged sister. Anyone.

Someone is stealing Tennessee’s boys.

Report suspicious behavior.

The Gemini Thief is a serial kidnapper who takes three boys and holds them captive from June 1 to June 30 of the following year. The June Boys endure 13 months of being stolen, hidden, observed, and fed before they are released, unharmed, by their masked captor. The Thief is a pro, having eluded authorities for nearly a decade and taken at least 12 boys.

Now, Thea Delacroix has reason to believe the Gemini Thief has taken a 13th victim: her cousin, Aulus McClaghen.

But the game changes when one of the kidnapped boys turns up dead. Together with her boyfriend Nick and her best friends, Thea is determined to find the Gemini Thief and the remaining boys before it’s too late. Only she’s beginning to wonder something sinister, something repulsive, something unbelievable, and yet, not impossible:

What if her father is the Gemini Thief?
