A novel by

 
 
Bite the Stars marks the U.S. debut of the gifted Canadian author, Eliza Clark. Written with cinematic flair and luminous intensity, Bite the Stars opens with a tornado that whips into motion the whirlwind events of a young woman's life.

Grace Larson tells the gripping story of the storm that caused her to go into labor prematurely and give birth to Cole, who becomes as menacing and dangerous as the force of nature out of which he was born.

While her son is on the run from the law, ravaging his own path of wild destruction, Grace reads books and studies facts of nature, the chemistry of fireflies, blazing trails of dying comets, ultraviolet visions of butterflies, looking for clues to her son's nature. She searches her memory for events in their past to figure out why Cole is the way he is, where nurture ends and nature rules. Bite the Stars is a spellbinding novel told from the eye of the storm.
