About this book

When Tana wakes up as the sole survivor of a horrifying massacre, she makes the desperate decision to enter Coldtown—a walled city where vampires and humans exist in a intoxicating, dangerous dance—to save the people she cares about most. Armed with fierce determination and a willingness to navigate the opulent darkness within those gates, she becomes entangled with a mysterious boy carrying secrets of his own and her infected ex-boyfriend who's running out of time. It's a high-stakes, darkly romantic adventure that pulses with danger, betrayal, and the kind of love that makes you question everything you thought you knew about monsters and heroes. Holly Black crafts an absolutely gripping story that's part survival thriller, part gothic romance, and entirely unforgettable.

Dark, gothic romance with haunting indie vocals and moody electronic undertones. Think ethereal synths meeting industrial beats—icy but magnetic. Cinematic, mysterious, tinged with danger and desperate longing. Artists like Metric, Grimes, The Neighbourhood, Purity Ring.
