Healing comes at a price—that’s the godfearing truth. Growing up on a farm in the foothills, Sierra Maddox is used to that bitterness in her granny’s folk magic and father’s addiction. But when her dad misses her graduation after finally getting clean, she’s sure it’s something darker than his usual pills.
After tracking her dad’s last-known location to a methadone clinic, Sierra meets Blight, an intoxicating and infuriating nonbinary caseworker. With Blight comes answers about Sierra’s dad and questions about her sexuality as they work with the clinic’s harm reduction program. While exploring their relationship and the opioid-riddled underworld, they discover a disease creeping through users’ veins like kudzu—and it looks a whole lot more like Granny’s magic than any ordinary infection.
Though her family’s folk healing seems to be at the heart of the outbreak, Sierra hesitates to take on her dark inheritance. Sure, it might give power and privilege enough to confront the drugs and disease, but it’s also what fuels cycles of addiction, abuse, and exploitation. As infectious iron rusts through the bodies of those she loves and surging kudzu threatens to bury the family’s hateful history once and for all, Sierra must decide which monsters to slay and which to become.

Deadname is YA horror complete at 65,000 words that follows a trans teen stalked by their pre-transition doppelganger. The novel will appeal to fans of unsettling queer stories like Chuck Tingle’s Camp Damascus and Logan-Ashley Kisner’s Old Wounds.
Andy’s got an out-of-state college acceptance, their top surgery scheduled, and enough cash saved to finally get out and live the life they’ve always wanted. The last thing they need is their mother’s sign-off on the surgery, but an accident during their coming out wins them nothing more than a trip to the emergency room and the silent treatment from Mom.
Much to Andy’s surprise, someone apologizes on their behalf, but for some reason, now Mom is calling them by their deadname, their surgery date was cancelled, and all of their savings were used to pay for damages from the accident. With someone threatening to kill them unless they go back to girlhood, Andy realizes they’re being stalked by a doppelganger of their pre-transition self.
“Deadname,” as Andy calls her, is everything fierce and feminine they tried to shed. Her success at flirting with their crush and acting like the perfect daughter shakes them to their core. If Andy can’t figure out who made her and how to take her out, she’ll kill them and seize the life they tried desperately to leave behind.
