“Did I pick her based on the cover? Yes. Did I think it was a fantasy novel because of the very obvious chalice of wine on the cover? Also yes? Did I quickly discover a riotous take on vampy girls trips? Again…yes. Did I stay til the end? OBVIOUSLY. ”

“Do you find yourself always making the safe choice, in men, in jobs, in homes, only to find yourself unsatisfied and unfulfilled? Do you accept less because it’s easier than longing for more? Do you ever want to just act immediately on your worst impulses? Do you want to feel wanted? Chased? This is the book for you! Rachel Harrison delivers feminine rage on a shining, blood crusted platter and I CANNOT get enough. ”

A woman must learn to take life by the throat after a night out leads to irrevocable changes in this juicy, thrilling novel from the USA Today bestselling author of Such Sharp Teeth and Black Sheep.
Sloane Parker is dreading her birthday. She doesn’t need a reminder she’s getting older, or that she’s feeling indifferent about her own life. Her husband surprises her with a birthday-weekend getaway—not with him, but with Sloane’s longtime best friend, troublemaker extraordinaire Naomi. Sloane anticipates a weekend of wine tastings and cozy robes and strategic avoidance of issues she’d rather not confront, like her husband’s 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 Sloane’s and Naomi’s lives literally forever. The friends are forced to come to terms with some pretty eternal consequences in this bloody, seductive novel about how it’s never too late to find satisfaction, even though it might taste different than expected.
Rachel Harrison is the national bestselling author of Black Sheep, Such Sharp Teeth, Cackle, and The Return, which was nominated for a Bram Stoker Award for Superior Achievement in a First Novel. Her short fiction has appeared in Guernica, in Electric Literature’s Recommended Reading, as an Audible Original, and in her debut collection, Bad Dolls. She lives in western New York with her husband and their cat/overlord.
