"A creepy, comic, compelling story of toxic family ties and conflicted identity — top-notch contemporary horror, but not as you know it."
Devilishly absorbing, Rachel Harrison’s Black Sheep is a outlandishly playful horror novel that tells a classic tale of conflict between family blood ties and the need to escape and forge one’s own way and identity.
23-year-old Vesper left her deeply religious family at the age of 18 and hasn’t looked back since. She had a dreadful relationship with her cold-hearted mom Constance, a former scream queen who starred in Hollywood horror movies, but wonders where her father has got to — she hasn’t seen him for 14 years. Then, out of the blue, she receives an invitation to attend the wedding of her cousin and best friend to her first and only love.
With an unexpected reunion and audacious revelations at the reception, Black Sheep stokes up an apocalyptic conclusion with emotional resonance.
A cynical twenty something must confront her unconventional family’s dark secrets in this fiery, irreverent horror novel from the acclaimed author of Cackle and Such Sharp Teeth.
