Author Wendy Parris at the Columbus Book Festival

Field of Screams is a pulse-pounding supernatural mystery about twelve-year-old Rebecca, who has always wanted to hunt ghosts . . . until she meets one.

Wendy Parris has always loved telling stories. So she studied film at Northwestern University, acted in small Chicago theaters after graduation, and even made up tales on the spot as part of an improv comedy troupe. Now she writes spooky books for tweens and teens. She lives in Illinois with her family in an old house that is probably not haunted. Her debut novel, Field of Screams, was a Junior Library Guild Gold Star Selection.
