P. Djèlí Clark's Ring Shout meets Alyssa Cole's When No One Is Watching in this creeping body horror novel following the tenants of an apartment complex in a gentrifying neighborhood, the parasitic infection they contract, and what they do to survive.

Leigh Pierce Estates is home to a diverse array of tenants: families, immigrants, students, the forgotten elderly. All working poor, and all in danger. Because the tenants of Leigh Pierce are disappearing.

Live-in handyman Xavier seems to be the only one who notices. Or cares. After a chance encounter with the culprit leaves him infected with something horrifying, Xavier is thrust into a surreal nightmare of starvation and consumption all too familiar to his gentrifying Atlanta neighborhood.

Succumbing to his infection, Xavier is drawn into the cobbled-together family squatting in Leigh Pierce's basement. People who, through a myriad of doomed roads, fell into the same self-destructive cycle of indigency, harboring dark secrets...and darker appetites. Trapped in a dynamic of codependency and complicity, Xavier and his family—new and old—are forced to confront the cost of survival in a world that has disregarded them.

Recensioni della critica

Acid-bath class struggle intermingles with parasitic terror in Briana N. Cox's slippery, slithering, symbiotically suffocating debut. (Clay McLeod Chapman, award-winning author of Ghost Eaters and Wake Up and Open Your Eyes)
[Cox] confidently delivers the genre goods, blending Cronenbergian body horror with a pervasive sense of doom. A touch of ambiguity (what exactly are those parasites?) heightens the suspense. . . . This damning portrayal of U.S. health care doubles as a potent, unforgettable creepfest.
Cox doesn’t simply write horror; she excavates it from the fault lines of class disparity and medical injustice. . . . a haunting exploration of interconnectedness, survival, and the cost of being deemed disposable . . . [that] will linger with readers long after the final page. (Faith Williams)
