Description
Ivory Sloan waded into the chilly New England waters without fanfare and hoped to retain her anonymity. However, discovering a body on the beach of Cape Morning alters Ivory’s plans. Ivory’s shock is soon overwhelmed with curiosity as she finds a letter near the body. Ivory snatches the possible evidence and leaves the beach in due haste. The letter is a poem that may hint at the author’s suicide. The author is listed as Cabrina Brite. Ivory soon believes that there is an otherworldly presence that she can’t shake free from. Cabrina’s best friends, Xi and Rex, feel the same way and attempt to commune with Cabrina’s spirit. As Ivory looks into Cabrina’s life, she discovers that they both sought an identity that others denied and/or ridiculed. Whereas Xi and Rex seek to understand their friend’s death, Ivory’s quest takes her down a rabbit hole of unimaginable consequences.
All the Hearts You Eat consistently delivers the unexpected in a novel that doesn’t restrict itself to one genre. Author Hailey Piper has written a book that excels in its ability to terrify yet alternatively be cerebral in its subject matter relating to identity, love, and grief. This book is destined to turn some heads.
