In a strange and troubled near future, a cure for mortality has been discovered, one that comes with a sky-high price tag and requires vast quantities of human blood to manufacture. As society schisms into have-nots and haves, mortals and Immortals, two very different families confront the new reality. The Hudsons, once homeless, now swap their blood for food, shelter, and the dream of a better life, while the Davenports turn on each other over an inheritance large enough to secure Immortality for only one of them.
When scandal brings the Hudsons and Davenports together, they form a fraught and unlikely partnership, grappling with their own fractured family dynamics while facing the ever-present threat of ruin and death. In T.N. Eyer's propulsive, thoughtful debut, meaning and purpose are elusive goals in a world shorn of the usual understandings of empathy and obligation.
