'An unflinching Appalachian horror and a book filled with bite, brutality, tenderness and evil. I loved it.' Lucy Rose, Sunday Times bestselling author of The Lamb'A lush, eerie, utterly spellbinding contemporary tale with all the makings of a classic, elegantly rendered by an exciting new talent. Exquisitely unsettling, hauntingly beautiful, and quietly profound. Beware, this book is pretty but it has sharp teeth.' Rachel Harrison, New York Times bestselling author of Play Nice'People did not expect such a thing, from a woman or a fawn; we were both meant to be prey.'In the Appalachian hills, Tess Wynne lives in precious quiet. She tends her wildlife sanctuary, honours old rituals and survives what comes for her each year.Then she finds a doe split open. And the fawn who survived. Red-mouthed. Full set of teeth. Hungry.Nature knows what must be done. The town watches to see if Tess will do it.She does not.Whispers spread. Old bargains strain. Something feral stirs within Tess-anger, appetite, the slow understanding that prey is only prey for so long.A dark folktale of teeth and inheritance, Fawn asks what a woman must become to keep what is hers-and what the land demands in return.
