Description

Bethany, a beautiful and popular teen hangs herself the night before Halloween. Her devoted sister follows her into a frozen death, and a city where trees bleed along the banks of a river of blood. Meanwhile, Addy is visiting from Montreal, determined that Natalie's mother will give birth to her baby while she is there.

Consider a baby born in a snowstorm, one girl who never sleeps and another who craves blood, ghostly footprints and dangling corpses, New Year's fireworks and an unexpected kiss, all tied to a legendary queen who lives in the hidden center of Suicide City.

Editorial Reviews

"the lively dialogue helps to reveal the personalities of all the characters." - CM Magazine

"The author skillfully paints a vivid picture of two worlds, one utterly real, the other grotesquely fantastical; each one a perfect counter balance to the other." - Jury, McNally Robinson Book for Young People
