book' Jennifer SaintFOR WHAT DO YOU HUNGER . . . ?Lenore is the
wife of steel magnate Henry, but ten years into their marriage the
relationship has soured, and no child has arrived to fill the
distance growing between them. Henry's ambitions take them from
London to the Peak District, to the remote, imposing Nethershaw

restore the crumbling house and ready it for Henry's guests - their
future depends on it.But as the couple travel through the bleak
countryside, a shocking carriage accident brings the mysterious
Carmilla into Lenore's life. Carmilla, who is weak and pale during
the day but vibrant at night, Carmilla who stirs up something deep
within Lenore. And before long, girls from the local villages fall
sick, consumed by a terrible hunger . . .As the day of the hunt
draws closer, Lenore begins to unravel, questioning the role she
has been playing all these years. Torn between regaining her
husband's affection and the cravings Carmilla has awakened, soon
Lenore will uncover a darkness in her household that will place her
at terrible risk . . .Set against the violent wilderness of the
Peaks and the uncontrolled appetite of the Industrial Revolution,

that inspired DRACULA: a captivating story of appetite and
desire.Everyone is devouring HUNGERSTONE . . .'Hungerstone grabbed

mix of danger and desire. Gothic, sensual, and captivating, I could
not put it down' Anya Bergman, international bestselling author of

gripping I genuinely struggled to put it down. Lenore is one of the
most compelling and morally complex characters I have encountered
in recent years' Elodie Harper'A sumptuous delight, Hungerstone
combines gothic thrills with a feminist exploration of what it
means to become estranged from our desires, and what it might mean
if we let ourselves be whole. I feasted on it' Jessica Moor'Kat
Dunn repaints the classic story of Carmilla in the boldest,
bloodiest colours. Hungerstone is decadent, brilliant, triumphant
and I devoured it' Sarah Underwood, author of Lies We Sing to the
Sea'Richly imagined and utterly compelling, this story's fierce
heart beats like a drum, calling to every woman who has ever had to
deny herself. A dark, gothic delight' Hester Musson'Deliciously
dark and atmospheric, Hungerstone throbs with the taste of the
forbidden. I devoured this breathtakingly original novel' Emily
