The Uninvited
A YA paranormal fantasy about vampires in the Paris underground, where a young woman's bohemian dream turns into a chilling nightmare. Now her survival hinges on bringing to light the city's darkest and deepest secrets. When 17-year-old Tosh Reeves moves from Portland, Oregon to Paris, it's a dream come to life. The city embraces her with its street-life, iconic architecture, and infinite gustatory delights. There's even a charming expat boy, Nick, who introduces her to sights tourists never see. From medieval catacombs to the viciously competitive street art scene, Tosh's immersion in Paris makes her feel wholly alive in a way she's never before experienced. She belongs. But when a series of brutal vampiric attacks creeps closer to her new circle of bohemian friends, Tosh will confront the darker side of her beloved Paris, and learn how deeply monsters can strike at a young woman's power and heart.

Praise for this book
Praise for The Uninvited "A darkly emotional, feminist tale full of honesty in the face of a sharp-edged and untrustworthy world."--Booklist "The story begins as a Parisian summer romp before shifting to become a creepy vampire horror story that creates a disturbingly apt parallel between vampirism and misogyny. Frightful, fun, and feminist."--Kirkus Reviews "[An] immersive debut."--Publishers Weekly "A visceral tour through the streets of Paris, with supernatural danger lurking around every corner and past traumas that cannot be suppressed. The Uninvited stands as a reminder; when the world tells us to shrink back and remain afraid, we don't have to listen."--Angela Montoya, author of A Cruel Thirst "An exciting Paris adventure dripping with atmosphere, this story is a timely punch back at the cruelty of monsters and a love letter to the fierce, incomparable strength of teenage girls."-- Sonia Hartl, author of The Lost Girls
