Spänningsromaner
A sensuous and strange horror novella full of creeping dread and delicious gore, twisting mermaid myths into something sharp, dangerous, and hungry, for fans of Christina Henry, Carmen Maria Machado and Eric LaRocca. After the murder of her husband and the fall of his empire, a mermaid and her plague doctor companion escape into the wilderness. Deep in the woods, they stumble across a village where children hunt each other for sport, sacrificing one of their own at the behest of three surgeons they call "the saints." These saints play god with their magic, harvesting the best bits of the children for themselves and piecing the sacrifices back together again. To save the children from their fates, the plague doctor must confront their past, and the mermaid must embrace the darkest parts of her true nature.

A captivating story that sadly drowns itself in gore.

The author really likes confusing prose, and although sometimes it can be a bit hard to dicern exactly what the meaning is, this book is captivating. The story is incredible. There is romance. There is horror (gore). It is very descriptive, but it was impossible to stop.

En sorts återberättad skräck-version av den lilla sjöjungfrun. Språket påminde mig starkt om spelet ”sunless sea” om någon spelat och uppskattat det så rekommenderar jag denna bok!
