About this listen
Women bite back in this queer gothic thriller, perfect for fans of Interview with the Vampire and Plain Bad Heroines.
It wasn't easy for Angela Bell growing up on Possession island, the remote Pacific Northwest setting of her late mother's wildly popular vampire novel. When she returns home from college and her estranged best friend, Mo, is murdered, she's forced to reckon with yet another loss—and finds herself in the crosshairs of the bungled police investigation.
Sally Raleigh has longed to leave the island for years, but she's trapped by her father's declining health and her devotion to her charismatic twin brother Adrian. The last thing she needs is her high-school nemesis Angela back in town. But Sally is also devastated by Mo's death, and finds herself forging an unlikely alliance with her former enemy to find Mo's killer.
As Angie and Sally delve deeper into the island's sinister underbelly, they must confront just how far they're willing to go to protect the people they love. And they'll soon find that the secrets they've been keeping from each other won't stay buried for long...

“Possession Island is as wickedly sly and sharp as a vampire's bite. I basically cleared my calendar to read this fabulous novel, and you'll want to do the same.” —Kat Howard, Alex Award-winning author of An Unkindness of Magicians
