Kirsty Logan    A FOLK TALE. A HORROR STORY. A LOVE STORY. AN ENCHANTMENT.   Margot and Mama
have lived by the forest since Margot can remember. When Margot is not at school  they spend
quiet days together in their cottage  waiting for strangers to knock on their door. Strays 
Mama calls them. Mama loves the strays. She feeds them wine  keeps them warm. Then she
satisfies her burning appetite by picking apart their bodies.  But Mama's want is stronger than
her hunger sometimes  and when a white-toothed stray named Eden turns up in the heart of a
snowstorm  little Margot must confront the shifting dynamics of her family  untangle her own
desires and make her own bid for freedom.  With this gothic coming-of-age tale  debut novelist
Lucy Rose explores how women swallow their anger  desire and animal instincts - and wrings the
relationship between mother and daughter until blood drips from it.
