A Love Like Blood: A Novel by Marcus Sedgwick

In 1944, just days after the liberation of Paris, Charles Jackson sees something horrific: a man in a dark tunnel, apparently drinking the blood of a murdered woman. Terrified, he does nothing, telling himself afterward that worse tragedies happen during war. Seven years later he returns to the city-and sees the same man dining in the company of a fascinating, beautiful young woman. When they leave the restaurant, Charles decides to follow ...A Love Like Blood is a dark, compelling thriller about how a man's life can change in a moment and about where the desire for truth-and revenge-can lead.

YA author Sedgwick (Midwinter Blood) shifts triumphantly to adult fiction with this moving and multifaceted thriller.

In this macabre psychological thriller, Sedgwick offers atmospheric settings and a relentless, chilling plot that gives a whole new meaning to the idea of 'blood feud.' -- Kirkus This adult debut portends a tremendous second act from acclaimed YA author Sedgwick. Sedgwick's prose is nothing short of gorgeous. Here's a novel that tastes of blood and dust, just as a fine old-fashioned horror novel should. -- Booklist (starred)
