From the author of Wild and Wicked Things comes a dark gothic fantasy about intoxication, obsession and a desperate hunger for knowledge—whatever the cost.

Thora Grieve finds herself destitute and an outcast after the sudden death of her husband, but a glimmer of hope arrives when a family friend offers her the chance to study botany under a famed professor. Once at the university, Thora becomes entranced by a mysterious young woman, Olea, who emerges each night to tend to the plants in the private garden below her window.

Hungry for connection, Thora befriends Olea through the garden gate and their relationship quickly and intensely blossoms. Intoxicated, Thora throws herself into finding a cure for Olea's ailment and sinks deeper into a world of beauty, poison, and obsession. She's finally found the freedom to pursue her darkest desires, but will it be worth the price?

Critic reviews

"A rich, Gothic fantasy of obsession, trauma, and lies that twist and knot like tangled roots. This Vicious Hunger is a queer fairy tale of toxic romance that echoes with longing." ―Tanya Pell, author of Her Wicked Roots

"Brimming with romance and gilded with danger, Wild and Wicked Things is a heady, lyrical gem of a book." ―Hannah Whitten, New York Times bestselling author of For the Wolf

"Haunting, immersive, and seething with dark magic, Wild and Wicked Things cast its spell on me." ―Alexis Henderson, author of The Year of the Witching
