Redheaded Wyatt Westlock returns to her family’s farmhouse following her father’s death; she’s there to burn it to the ground.
But she finds Peter, her childhood friend, chained in her basement. Wyatt releases him, unaware of his secret: He’s immortal and has been ritually sacrificed by generations of members of Wyatt’s family in order to keep hellish monsters from invading our world. His only escape from the cycle of death and rebirth is to kill Wyatt, the last Westlock. Although each of them can only survive if the other dies, their unspoken love for each other keeps them locked in an uneasy truce. Without Peter’s bones, the darkness in the forest creeps closer, bringing with it terrible creatures and eldritch horrors. The couple must explore Wyatt’s own wild magic if they hope to save their doomed romance. Andrew delivers an emotionally intense story of star-crossed lovers whose story unfolds against the backdrop of an isolated farm that’s visited by terrifying birds, menacing hooded figures, and a creature that uses powers of mimicry to hunt. The farm is so vibrantly described that it thoroughly connects the characters to the setting both physically and emotionally, reflecting the bleakness of the choices Peter and Wyatt face. The rot, mold, and mildew that creep over the farm are almost tangible; so too is the longing Peter and Wyatt feel for each other. All characters read white.
A tragic and grotesque romance that will enchant fans of dark fantasy and horror. (Dark fantasy. 14-adult)
