For Sophia, that happiness means taking joy in her perfect husband and the perfect house he made her. This sharp, slim novella takes place in the seemingly idyllic Arcadia Gardens, where everything is perfect and everyone should be - is required to be - happy. This ruthless, character-driven vampire novel is perfect for Halloween. She enlists a hapless street teenager named Domingo to help her escape, but there are dangerous complications at every turn. However, with local police and the rival gang’s goonies on her tail, it’s much easier to enter Mexico City than it is to leave. That makes Mexico City the perfect place for Atl, an Aztec vampire, to hide after a rival vampire gang kills her family. Vampire gangs terrorize many, but Mexico City is a closed nation city and ruthlessly drives out any vampires who manage to sneak within its borders. In an alternative present, vampires are alive and well, but not all cities welcome them, understandably. Certain Dark Things by Silvia Moreno-Garcia
