loane Parker is dreading her birthday. She doesnt need a reminder shes getting older, or that shes feeling indifferent about her own life.
Her husband surprises her with a birthday weekend getawaynot with him, but with Sloanes longtime best friend, troublemaker extraordinaire Naomi.
Sloane anticipates a weekend of wine tastings and cozy robes and strategic avoidance of issues shed rather not confront, like her husbands repeated infidelity. But when they arrive at their rental cottage, it becomes clear Naomi has something else in mind. She wants Sloane to stop letting things happen to her, for Sloane to really live. So Naomi orchestrates a wild night out with a group of mysterious strangers, only for it to take a horrifying turn that changes Sloanes and Naomis lives literally forever.
The friends are forced to come to terms with some pretty eternal consequences in this bloody, seductive novel about how its never too late to find satisfaction, even though it might taste different than expected.
Harrison is back with another feminist take on the horror genre...Although not all friends change into vampires, everyone changes, as do friendship dynamics. Sloane and Naomi will have to learn how to navigate their new lives to continue to be there for each other. There's much to love in Harrison's tale."Booklist (starred review)
