Description
The final hunt begins.
Two and a half years after Rebecca Carter woke on a mortuary slab, riven by desperate hunger, she and her daughter Moonflower are still on the run - keeping to the shadows, feeding when they can, and only on those who deserve it.
Until they are caught.
For ten years, Tom Burden has hunted creatures like the Carters. But now he has been tasked with delivering Rebecca and Moonflower to Solace, a remote town hidden in the forests north of Seattle: a commune of people like them, where they can live in peace, safety and plenty.
But Solace is not what it seems.
And when Rebecca uncovers a horrifying secret, she realizes that in their desperate search for somewhere to belong, she and Moonflower may have made their gravest mistake yet.
Because sometimes, when you stop running, that's when the nightmares catch up.
Blood binds them. Darkness hunts them. And family is the fiercest monster of all.
Concluding the journey begun with Blood Like Mine - one of the New York Times Best Horror Books of 2024 and shortlisted for the 2025 CWA Ian Fleming Steel Dagger - this is perfect for fans of Let the Right One In and Stephen King.
?PRAISE FOR THE BLOOD TRILOGY FROM READERS:
'Intense, ingenious and one of my favourite books of the year so far. Possibly even better than the first book'
'I raced through this book and am now eagerly awaiting the next one, again!'
'Pacy, exciting and sometimes brutal material with a real heart to it. Hoping for more!'
'Neville has himself another winner here I think'
