- Book 1 of 5: The Lizzy Ballard Thrillers
Lizzy Ballard was born with an extraordinary ability, and while she tries to hide it, others seek to control it. Who will win this deadly zero-sum game?
When Lizzy Ballard’s parents discover the damage she can do with her mind, they hide her away, trying to save her from life as a human lab rat—and trying to save others from her power. But they can’t hide her forever.
When tragedy tears her family apart, Lizzy learns just how deadly her ability is, and how dangerous her life has become. Hunted by a shadowy organization that will turn her power to its own ends no matter the cost, she’s forced to leave behind everything she’s ever known, with only her nerve and a few unlikely allies between her and the people hunting her. And the more she learns, the more she realizes there may be others like her.
ROCK PAPER SCISSORS is the gripping first novel in Matty Dalrymple’s Lizzy Ballard thriller series—a story of ruthless ambition, the terrible things done in its name, and the makeshift family that stands in its way. For readers of Stephen King’s Firestarter who like a young heroine with a power she never asked for, this is where Lizzy’s fight to escape the clutches of those who would control her starts. The game has begun, and the stakes have never been higher.

Review
“Dalrymple has written a fast-paced, complex thriller that can keep a reader engaged and off-kilter until its foreboding conclusion. ... A deadly game involving a dangerous girl that does have a winner: the reader.”
—Kirkus Reviews
“Not since Carrie have we seen a character excite such fear in those forced to learn her terrible secret the hard way.”
—Robert Blake Whitehill, Screenwriter and Best-selling Author of The Ben Blackshaw Series
“At once heart-wrenching and chilling, 'Rock Paper Scissors' is both a poignant and tragic family drama and an unnerving thriller, packed with action, twists, and more than a few scares.”
—Jon McGoran, Author of the YA science-fiction thrillers Spliced and Splintered
“Not since Stephen King’s 'Firestarter' has someone like Lizzy Ballard come along, a young woman who fears herself even more than she fears others.”
—Suzanne Chazin, Author of the Jimmy Vega Mystery Series
“'Rock Paper Scissors' is a complex game of cat-and-mouse that makes for a fast-paced, gripping, and oh-so-delicious thriller. Dalrymple weaves a tale that is almost as heartbreaking as it is riveting.”
—Michael Bradley, Author of Sirens in the Night and Follow You Down
“A bubbling zinger that grabs you on the first page and doesn't let go even at the end, when it leaves you wanting to take the main characters home, or to follow them to their next date with suspense.”
—Merry Jones, Author of the Elle Harrison, Harper Jennings, and Zoe Hayes Thrillers
