The Hollywood Reporter reports that Lauren Beukes’ new time-travel thriller The Shining Girls has been acquired by MRC and Leonardo DiCaprio’s Appian Way for the purposes of a television adaptation.

The Shining Girls releases today, but already it’s been generating buzz on Summertime reading lists. (I included it in my own list of June SF/F picks at Kirkus Reviews Blog). It tells the story of a serial killer who escapes the authorities using time travel, at least until one of his victims survives and begins to figure out the truth.
