Publisher's summary

Andrea Hannah's Where Darkness Blooms is a supernatural thriller about an eerie town where the sunflowers whisper secrets and the land hungers for blood.

The town of Bishop is known for exactly two things: recurring windstorms and an endless field of sunflowers that stretches farther than the eye can see. And women—missing women. So when three more women disappear one stormy night, no one in Bishop is surprised. The case is closed and their daughters are left in their dusty shared house with the shattered pieces of their lives. Until the wind kicks up a terrible secret at their mothers’ much-delayed memorial.

With secrets come lies, and each of the girls is forced to confront them. After caring for the other girls, Delilah would like to move on with her boyfriend, Bennett, but every time he touches her she feels unbearable pain. Whitney has already lost both her mother and her girlfriend, Eleanor, and now her only solace is an old weathervane that seems to whisper to her. Jude, Whitney's twin sister, would rather ignore it all, but the wind kicks up her secret too: the summer fling she had with Delilah's boyfriend. And more than anything, Bo wants answers and she wants them now. Something happened to their mothers and the townsfolk know what it was. She’s sure of it.

Bishop has always been a strange town. But what the girls don’t know is that Bishop was founded on blood—and when it’s through with them, no one might survive.

Lyrical and creepy

I’ve always loved horror stories that have an unusual villain, and without giving any spoilers, this totally fits the bill. Lyrical language and great characterization. I especially enjoyed Bo’s point of view, as her voice was the most fierce and distinctive. There were some elements of the ending that were really unexpected, so that was a pleasant surprise, and I also appreciate that they touched on really important issues, like recovering from trauma.

It may seem drawn out but worth it

This book was beautifully written. the characters are fleshed out so well. you don't get to just experience the book. but you watch broken girls become gladiators. you find yourself rooting for them every step of the way. A prequel or second book literally would be my only ask. Also one of the narrators voice sounds like Rose McGowan & I couldn't shake it. you can't tell me it's not her going by another name 🤣🤣
