Some friendships survive anything. Others come back wrong.
Two years after Julie vanished without a trace, her best friend Elise never stopped believing she’d return. When Julie suddenly reappears—thin, pale, and unable to recall where she’s been—their college friends gather for a weekend reunion at a remote inn. But from the moment Elise sees her, she knows something isn’t right.
As the nights stretch on, laughter turns uneasy, appetites grow strange, and the walls close in around a secret no one wants to face.
The Return by Rachel Harrison is a darkly witty and deeply unsettling debut about friendship, obsession, and the monsters we bring home. A haunting modern horror novel perfect for fans of Jennifer’s Body and The Cabin at the End of the World.
