Description
A sapphic supernatural YA graphic novel featuring a vampire crushing on the girl hunting her, from the author of Some Girls Do and the illustrator of Wonder Woman: Warbringer. Poe never imagined that during her senior year of high school she would be attacked by a pair of vampires and turned into one herself. And she never dreamed her longtime crush, Jolie - who seemed to maybe actually like Poe back - would turn out to be a slayer. When Jolie drives a wooden stake into her chest, Poe's heart is broken at the betrayal. But somehow she survives the slaying, and when she awakens, it's unclear which is stronger inside her: the thirst for blood, or the thirst for revenge on Jolie. Now the hunter has become the hunted. But, when the girls come face to face again, Jolie seems overjoyed that Poe is still alive. And beneath Poe's rage remains a burning passion of a different sort. But can a vampire and a slayer ever be more to each other than predator and prey?

Reviews
"Seaton's comic book-style artwork enhances the story's dramatic tone and fast pace . . . [a] vampiric tale blending themes of revenge, lost Sapphic love, and self-acceptance." -Kirkus Reviews
"Dugan's writing, particularly her naturalistic dialogue, pairs smoothly with the solid art in gorgeous colors. . . A good choice for fans of Squad by Maggie Tokuda-Hall and, of course, Buffy the Vampire Slayer." -Booklist
"This team is on fire! Every book Seaton and Dugan make together is a must-read." -Leila del Duca, author of Afar
