Oh say, can’t you see,
by the dawn’s early light,
what strange fruit and fear
this land has sown?
In this psychologically haunting YA fiction anthology, ten talented writers explore the terror and anxiety that bleed into the Black psyche in America.
From black market medical experiments to shapeshifting monsters, to doomsday cults and body snatchers each story casts an unnerving and thought-provoking light on the real-world horrors of our society that can disrupt a life—or end it.
Ranging from speculative to contemporary, this collection of terror and resistance asks if we can finally see the thing that goes bump in the night, and how it walks freely in the light of day, too.
