Bloomsbury presents They Bloom at Night by Trang Thanh Tran, read by Nhi Do.

'Trang Thanh Tran has a story for everyone who wants to tear off their skin and craves the strange ache of becoming something new. This book molts and chews itself raw under your fingers. It's perfect' – Andrew Joseph White, New York Times bestselling author of Compound Fracture

'They Bloom at Night is a stunning exploration of healing from trauma in nature, relationships, and within ourselves. A mesmerizing novel' – Liselle Sambury, author of Delicious Monsters

New York Times bestselling author Trang Thanh Tran crafts a harrowing story about a teen searching for a future where she can finally be free from the monsters that haunt her …

Ever since a hurricane devastated the small town of Mercy, Louisiana, a red algae bloom has taken over. Mutated wildlife lurks in the water that rises by the day, but Mercy has always been a place where monsters walk in plain sight. Especially at its heart: the Cove, where Noon's life was upended long before the storm at a party her older boyfriend insisted on.

Now, Noon is stuck navigating the submerged town with her mom, who believes their family have been reincarnated as sea creatures. Alone with the pain of what happened that night at the cove, Noon buries the truth: she is not the right shape.

When Mercy's predatory leader demands Noon and her mum capture the creature drowning residents, she reluctantly finds an ally in his deadly hunter of a daughter and friends old and new. As the next storm approaches, Noon must confront the past and decide if it's time to answer the monster itching at her skin.

A story for everyone who wants to tear off their skin and craves the strange ache of becoming something new. This book molts and chews itself raw under your fingers. It's perfect

Andrew Joseph White, New York Times bestselling author of COMPOUND FRACTURE
A literary tour-de-force that should go down in history as a masterclass in atmospheric and terrifying writing.

Kosoko Jackson, USATODAY bestselling author of THE FOREST DEMANDS ITS DUE
A briny, rotting ode to the things we must become to survive and the things we yearn to become when the surviving is over. In elegant, atmospheric prose, Trang Thanh Tran peels back layers of salty skin and sea foam to expose the truth: even when we are wrong, even when we are monstrous, we are whole.

Courtney Gould, award-winning author of THE DEAD AND THE DARK
Trang Thanh Tran has created a horrifying, mesmerizing world that's not too far from our own, challenging us to examine who the real monsters truly are.

Alex Brown, Locus Award nominated author of DAMNED IF YOU DO
Gorgeous, gruesome, and fiercely cathartic, They Bloom at Night is body horror with a beating heart.

Rebecca Mahoney, author of THE VALLEY AND THE FLOOD and THE MEMORY EATER
A stunning exploration of healing from trauma in nature, in relationships, and within ourselves. A mesmerizing novel with visceral descriptions that are both gorgeous and terrifying.

Liselle Sambury, author of DELICIOUS MONSTERS
