For fans of zombies, vampires, and body snatchers.
This novel felt like I was watching a gruesome horror flick play out; with a slow build that gradually picks up momentum throughout a sleepy, covid stricken town. Lucia does the genre proud, following a well loved formula, while still making the story their own. The plot was character driven, yet managed to not wear you down with too many details from the many faces of Pleasant Brook. A gory and lovely terror that gives not so subtle shout outs to classic and modern horror novels & movies, alike.
