The Ravenous by Amy Lukavics

I eagerly awaited for this to be released after reading The Women in the Walls.  It did not disappoint.  Lukavics is a master of horror with strong female leads.  In short, she kicks butt as an author.  I'm a fan for sure.

From the outside, the Canes look like the perfect family--respected military dad, stay-at-home mom, five beautiful daughters.  Reality: Dad's never home and Mom's a pill-popping drunk.  Oldest daughter a sadistic control freak, second a wuss follower, third a stoner, fourth a budding drunk.  Only the youngest seems somewhat normal.  And it is Rose, the baby, who dies when accidentally shoved down the stairs during an argument between her mother and oldest sister.

I don't want to spoil too much, but Mom does some really scary things to bring her daughter back to life (and to keep her alive).  When she takes off, maintaining their sister's, um, "needs" falls to the older girls.

Look for this to be on display with our new books next week!
