Fawn and Silver share nearly everything: coming out together as trans in their small Maryland town, clocking a copious number of hours in detention, and spending their sleepovers secretly making out. They''re also uniquely obsessed with vampires, who are being hunted, imprisoned, and executed for the danger they allegedly pose to human life. Meanwhile in Seattle, Rachel''s relationship to her girlfriend and her membership in her mother''s vampire-slaying vigilante group is thrown into question when she''s bitten by her mother''s nemesis and awakes with a craving for blood. When Silver disappears and Fawn goes west in search of him, her and Rachel''s fates converge, both falling into the hands of Cain, an edgelord vampire known for his proselytizing for the drinking of human blood. But in discovering hidden tunnels and secret bars, youth shelters and punk shows and safe houses, Fawn finds herself in the middle of a vampire underground in Seattle - an organised resistance keeping each other alive through a network of blood distribution and protection from slayers. Fawn''s Blood is a timely antidote to the anti-trans moral panic of today. Playing with tropes about monstrousness, predation, and villainy, this multi-voiced vampire novel offers a paranormal YA fantasy full of complicated queer characters - human and monster alike - all of whom are simply trying to survive in a world that wants them dead.
