Friends in Dark Places

A sharply humorous, chilling, and witchy novel about the power of female rage and the undeniable warmth of friendship, for fans of Rachel Harrison and T. Kingfisher.

After Eula inherits the sprawling, shadowy estate of Crab Hollow on the remote shores of Shelter Island, she sees a chance to reconnect with her three closest friends. When Kate, Alice, and Danny arrive at the isolated mansion for a Halloween weekend, they believe they’re escaping their own unraveling lives.

Kate is desperately hiding her family’s sudden financial ruin. Alice is running from a relentless stalker. And Danny is wrestling with a suffocating sense of betrayal.

But Eula harbors the darkest secret of all. Crab Hollow pulses with the vengeful spirit of Amity, an ancestor who demands bloody justice for ancient wrongs. As the autumn wind howls and the weekend stretches on, the friends unknowingly step into a trap fueled by centuries of feminine rage. When betrayals surface and supernatural forces awaken, the fiercely loyal sisterhood transforms into a desperate fight for survival.
