Natural Selection by Clare Edge (Delacorte)

Krista Marino at Delacorte Press has bought, in a six-figure, four-house auction, Natural Selection by Clare Edge (Accidental Demons). Pitched as Jennifer's Body meets "I choose the bear," this horror-tinged YA speculative thriller tells the story of three girls who share a name (and a secret), whose lives go up in flames when a grizzly starts picking off known abusers in their secluded mountain town. Publication is scheduled for summer 2026; Jennifer Azantian at Azantian Literary Agency did the deal for North American rights.
