Desire and danger beneath Preston University

At Preston University, Marcella is trying to keep her monstrous nature—and her meals—discreet, while Lacie is focused on securing tenure. Their plans are disrupted when colleagues begin dying. Marcella denies responsibility, and the threat appears to be something older and less restrained. As the two investigate, attraction grows alongside the danger. The setup brings occult horror into an academic workplace and ties its supernatural menace to questions of trust, belonging, revenge, and desire. The book is presented as a sapphic horror-romance, with the relationship and the killings intertwined rather than separate strands.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in sapphic horror-romance
  • Readers drawn to supernatural threats set in an academic workplace
  • Readers interested in stories combining desire, revenge, and belonging

Book overview

A blood-soaked love story of rage, revenge, and belonging, Taylor Grothe's adult debut is a sapphic horror/romance that's as grotesque as it is beautiful.

DELUXE EDITION--a drop-dead stunning paperback featuring vivid sprayed edges!

Something ravenous lurks below the marble floors of Preston University...

Marcella might be a monster, but she's careful. After getting hired at Preston University, she intends to lay low and keep her meals discreet.

Trapped in the rat race of academia, all Lacie wants is to make tenure. This will be her year, and nothing is going to stand in her way.

That is, until bodies start dropping.

Marcella swears it isn't her doing--as if she'd be that sloppy. Whatever's killing their coworkers is older, and far less restrained. Lacie doesn't know who to trust, but better the monster you know...

The deeper they dig, the more they're drawn to each other... and the more something else is drawn to them.

After all, desire has teeth of its own.
