What They're Saying
Critics Review
★ “This is a claustrophobic, evocative tale, skillfully crafted and sharply descriptive with horrifying imagery to spare… Powerfully angry and vengeance-laden, with terrifying and very human monsters.”–SLJ, starred review
“Profound and powerful….Essential reading for every young witch coming into her power.”
–Lindy Ryan, author of Bless Your Heart and Cold Snap“An eerie and powerful exploration of feminine rage and embracing your own power–this gripped me from the very first page.”
–Katrina Leno, author of Horrid and You Must Not Miss“Baguchinsky weaves a terrifying and triumphant story of female friendship–a brew of secrets, grief, love, and rage–that readers will recognize in their bones. I adored it.”
–Rebecca Podos, Lambda Literary Award-winning author of Like Water“Deliciously claustrophobic…[and] entirely gripping from start to finish.”
–Kirkus“Perfectly illustrating the righteous fury of young women with creeping shadows and hungry waters, Baguchinsky’s first step into YA horror slams in like a storm, leaving you anxious and breathless in just the right way.”
–Andrew Joseph White, New York Times bestselling author of Hell Followed with Us and The Spirit Bares Its TeethAbout The Author
Jill Baguchinsky
Jill Baguchinsky is an award-winning author who grew up on a barrier island just off the coast of Southwest Florida, where she read too much Stephen King and dodged more hurricanes than she could count. After one storm too many, she and her mini menagerie of rescue animals moved inland. Aside from the manatees she used to watch in her backyard canal, Jill doesn’t miss much about island life.
