In her signature style, Francesca Lia Block has created a world that is beautiful in its destruction and as frightening as it is lovely.

But when her husband suddenly dies, all her hopes and dreams instantly disappear. Two and a half years later, Natalie is still lost. She works, sleeps (well, as much as the sexually frustrated village foxes will allow), and sees friends just often enough to allay their worries, but her life is empty.
