(2023)
A novel by

 
 
A bloody and unforgettable tale of transformation and survival, told by three women surviving in a world devastated by a disastrous transformation from multiple Bram Stoker Award-winner.

Humanity has been irrevocably changed by a virus that radically alters its victims...yet life goes on.

Three women must band together to try to survive. Erin and Savannah are helping usher in the new world, while Mareva has been burdened with a very special task ― one she's too horrified to even acknowledge.

A beautifully written, cosmically horrifying, wholly unique story that examines the roots of our belief systems and completely defies all expectations.
