Advance Reader Copy

Blurb

Freedom was only the beginning of the nightmare.

Amity Vale has already survived captivity. She thought getting out would be the hard part.

Then a violent, rabies-like outbreak begins tearing the country apart.

As roads become dangerous, supplies disappear, and strangers become harder to trust, Amity is forced to survive in a world unraveling around her. But the outbreak isn’t the only thing following her. The memories of what she escaped are still close, and every new threat has a way of dragging the past back with it.

Freedom was supposed to mean safety.

Instead, Amity has to decide how far she’s willing to go to stay alive—and whether escaping a cage means anything when the whole world has become one.

Caged Birds Scream is a dark, character-driven survival thriller about trauma, endurance, and the monsters that remain after escape.

Author

Vivian Graves writes dark, character-driven fiction about survival, grief, and the strange things people become when the world stops behaving itself.

She lives with an unreasonable number of animals, and divides her time between writing, studying, and occasionally being outsmarted by livestock.

Her fiction blends psychological suspense, horror, and survival with complicated women who are rarely prepared for what happens to them but figure it out anyway.

Caged Birds Scream is her debut novel.
