'A pitch-dark, pitch-perfect literary horror'

Luke Kennard

There is something creeping at the edge of your vision, lingering somewhere just out of focus. All it would take is to let your mind wander, to let it come into view.

A young woman wakes after a house party with scratches and bruises - and a gap in her memory.

As the violent truth comes back to her - a series of events she struggles to name - her anger grows.

Solace comes in the form of enigmatic, captivating Helene, who knows what the man at the party did, has suffered at his hands too. An act of violence demands one in return and Helene is planning revenge.

But who can afford to ask for justice, when the cost is murderously high?
Industry Reviews
Searing . . . Stuckes crafts a barbed character study, addressing the unease of existing in the female body, the "lack of humanity" of the gig economy and the numbness that follows trauma - Observer

A blistering, almost unbearably tense read - i

A pitch-dark, pitch-perfect literary horror, haunted by a righteous anger that spirals out into the world indefinitely.

A brilliant, chilling, furious novel. Real, relatable, and unputdownable

This novel makes livid the faultlines of power, in gripping, distinctive prose
