Tampa Bay joins Miami in representing the (alleged) Sunshine State in the Noir Series arena. 

It’s a miracle. The fountain of youth discovered flowing through the veins of postmillennials. In idyllic planned communities, freed from adulting and student loans, the young can live in guilt-free organic luxury.

There’s much more to the utopian Sunset Consortium than anyone realizes in this chilling trilogy. 

The protected escapees of the blood-farm experiments are free, secure, and set for life. Kind of. Because there’s something new to fear in this short thriller, the twisting finale of the Young Blood Trilogy.

Willow knows that if she doesn't brave the world outside, the letter will never be delivered and the boy will be heartbroken. Should she try? Can she?
