About the book:

Hazel Lewis has a serious problem. The guy who hired her to conduct a seance before he died turned out to be a serial killer with a demonic contract, and the seance itself was a trap. Hazel escaped with her life, but not as she knew it: the bite of a demon is spreading through her body, letting the supernatural bleed into the world around her, and the now-dead serial killer is waiting to take over her body if she dies.

Hoping to contain the damage, Hazel moves to a small house in a remote location. She figures she’ll stay on her own until she gets a handle on her new dark reality, but she soon finds out that she’s not alone. There’s the reporter demanding answers, the friendly neighbor with chemistry she doesn’t need and problems he can’t talk about…and the mysterious face she sees beyond her window, watching her every night with glowing red eyes.

Making her hunger.

Hazel knew a little bit about the world beyond the physical. Now she’s learning how much she doesn’t know, including who she can trust...and who she can become if she trusts herself enough to give in to the shadows stalking her dreams.

About the author:

Isabel Crowley was born in Pennsylvania and still lives there for a lot of each year. When she’s not writing, she edits newsletters, plays heavily modded versions of video games so she doesn’t have to choose between the love interests, plays tabletop games, and reads. She splits her time between living with her primary partner, her parents, and housemates from her college days, always leaving before her crimes catch up with her. Those crimes are mostly spilling sugar on the countertops, but the principle is sound.

About the conversation partner:

KATE KOENIG is a queer and neurodiverse writer, photographer, and cat mom originally from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. She studied history and children’s literature at the University of Pittsburgh before earning her MFA at The New School. Kate writes across genres and mediums, but her heart belongs to YA fantasy. She likes flawed, messy women who make the wrong choices, love big, and sometimes—hate harder. Her ultimate goal is to write stories for all lost girls looking for a place to call home.
