Locked in a toxic female friendship, two vampires careen toward catastrophe in this dark and dazzling page-turner, set amidst London's glittering disco scene.
London 1979. Two women with a deep love for disco meet one fateful night on the dance floor, changing the course of both their lives forever.
Nicola, a beautiful and brooding vampire for nearly two centuries, can't resist fun-loving and feisty Amber from America, ultimately offeringan eternity together where the glamour of nightlife always takes center stage.
But not all is what it seems.
Nearly fifty years later, after an unexpected betrayal, Amber wants out from under Nicola's thumb, but it won't be so simple to break up this festering friendship when she learns others have done the same—and wound up dead.
Sensing Amber's restlessness and in one last play to keep her close, Nicola proposes they open a nightclub of their very own, hearkening back to their best days as dancing queens.
Amber agrees but she's secretly hatching a dangerous escape plan. And if she fails…the party is over for good.
"Concealed family histories, betrayals, and carefully parceled flashbacks usher the narrative toward an incendiary climax, and Croft's devilish plotting pays heed to classic vampire tropes without succumbing to them. Readers should rush to sink their teeth into this." —Publishers Weekly (starred review)
"Not only irresistibly glamorous and impossibly fun… this novel, full of toxic female friendships, centuries-old feuds, and London disco is a Snack. Trust me when I say: you'll never want this party to end." —Katy Hays, New York Times bestselling author of The Cloisters
"Glitzy and glamorous…a deliciously original story about two female vampires locked into a toxic friendship doomed to last an eternity. Rachel Koller Croft perfectly balances both the addictive fun that comes with being forever young as well as the blood-curdling consequences that inevitably arise when you choose to live your life in the dark." —Stacy Willingham, New York Times bestselling author of Only If You're Lucky
"A fresh take on vampire lore and frenemies galore!...Prepare to be mesmerized." —Liv Constantine, bestselling author of The Last Mrs. Parrish
