CLUB DECEPTION (Grand Central, July 2017), a murder mystery involving an underground magic club, is her first novel for adults. Praise for BRUISED: STARRED REVIEW "Offering psychological drama and an introduction to a martial-arts code of behavior, the book has a meaningful message about power, control, and the internal bruises carried by victims." ~Publishers Weekly, starred review "Her story is compelling, and readers will stick with her as new insights bring about a believable shift in her behavior...This distinctive debut will be appreciated by fans of contemporary fiction." ~Kirkus Reviews "Debut author Skilton understands and respects martial arts, and she does a beautiful job presenting the philosophy that drives serious martial artists... Here is a writer to watch who handles complex issues with sensitivity in the vein of Deb Caletti and Sarah Dessen." ~ Booklist "This layered first novel explores the aftereffects of the trauma, convincingly depicting why Imogen blames herself for a situation over which she had no control... Imogen's struggle is nuanced and honest." ~ Horn Book "A useful exploration of the difference between fantasy-style omnipotence and the complexity of real-life human strength." ~ Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books Praise for HIGH & DRY: “A dark, well-constructed mystery with a strong voice.” ~ Kirkus “Clever high school noir” - Horn Book “School drama, romance, and mystery make a heady mash-up and an involving quick pick.” ~ ​Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books “Everything about this book is clever and fast-paced and smart... this book just hits it out of the park.” - Cristin (Children's and YA buyer, McNally Jackson) “A marriage of genres so perfectly done, one wonders why this teenage Humphrey Bogart isn't already a series.” - Mabel's Fables Bookstore, Toronto “Brilliantly voiced thriller with a stunning climax” - The Bookbag UK
