Kate Alice Marshall

Kate Alice Marshall is an American author of young-adult horror and thriller fiction, known for atmospheric novels built around isolation and psychological dread. Her breakout novel I Am Still Alive (2018) follows a teenager fighting to survive alone in the Canadian wilderness after her father's murder, while Rules for Vanishing (2019) reimagines the "vanishing road" ghost-story legend as a missing-persons mystery, and Thirteens and Our Last Echoes continue her run of small-town supernatural thrillers. Her Secrets of Eden Eld series, including Brackenbeast and Glassheart, extends her interest in eerie small-town settings into a connected sequence for younger readers. Marshall's fiction is consistently grounded in survival, grief, and folklore-adjacent horror. Detailed public biographical information beyond her bibliography is limited, though her output spans more than half a dozen novels within a decade.
