We talk to New York Times bestselling author Kalynn Bayron (CINDERELLA IS DEAD and THIS POISON HEART duology) about her middle-grade novel, THE VANQUISHERS.

Everybody knows vampires have been vanquished, right?  Welllll, maybe no.....

Twelve-year-old Malika “Boog” Wilson and her best friends have grown up idolizing The Vanquishers, a group of masked vampire hunters who wiped out the last hoard of the undead decades ago. For kids today, vampires feel more like fun comic book fodder than real life, and the days of garlic wreaths and early curfews are long gone.

But when a new student, Aaron, joins Boog's crew, and goes missing after a school fundraiser, the kids suspect a vampire was involved. Boog is convinced their school counselor, Mr. Rupert, is hiding something and she is determined to save Aaron. No one ever expected The Vanquishers to return, but if their town needs protection from the undead, they know who to call.
