Leia lives on the Island, a world in which children leave their parents to take care of themselves when they are ten years old. Across this Island runs a wall that no one has ever crossed. The Fools living behind it are not amenable to reason – they believe in illusions. That’s what The Book says, the only thing left to the Eastern Islanders by their ancestors. But when a strange man washes ashore and Leia meets a Fool face to face, her life will never be the same. Is what she and her friends believe about the Island really true? Or is everyone in their world, in fact, a Fool?

When he was young, Thomas was a travel writer and photographer. But in his old age his children pressure him to move to retirement home. He resists until a fateful encounter with one of his fellow residents: a woman who doesn't seem to age and who definitely has a taste for blood.... *Part of why I wrote this story was to write a non traditional vampire story. The leads aren't young, one of the characters is Asian (vampires seem to be very white for the most part), and it's set predominantly in a retirement home. But that said, it's still supposed to be suspenseful and interesting. I hope!*
