Description
This debut novel from a blazing new talent is a Faustian tale with a Gen Z edge
It’s a totally unassuming Tuesday when Aggie’s little sister Marcie – her favourite person, her especially made best friend – is admitted to hospital, prepared for a long stay with a bag of her softest things. It is a day Aggie has dreaded and longed for. Like crows need wings, like planets have moons, when it comes to Marcie, there’s nothing she wouldn’t do.
So when Death – red-lipped, feline-eyed and chignoned-to-perfection – appears in her bedroom
ready to strike a deal, Aggie doesn’t have much of a choice.
Seduce the grim reaper’s son, then break his heart.
Aggie hasn’t so much as kissed a boy, but when Aeron turns out to be endearingly self-conscious,
surely the fact that he is someone who Aggie might actually want to kiss will only make it easier? What could go wrong?
