In the shadowed hollows of the Appalachian Mountains, a young girl named Eira carries a beauty forged by wind, frost, and ancient stone-a beauty that is wild, untamed, and impossible to control. Her stepmother, Thessara, a cunning witch steeped in Appalachian blood magic, despises her. Thessara's own child, born through dark rituals, is unnervingly perfect-so flawless it unsettles even the mountain itself.
When envy turns deadly, Thessara attempts to destroy Eira by summoning curses from the hollows and spells older than memory. But the mountains remember. They send their guardians: a pack of wolves with eyes like coal and teeth like iron. The wolves watch, circle, and claim what belongs to the wild-and what belongs to the mountain.
Blood in Their Stomach is steeped in Appalachian folklore, witchcraft, and the brutal, inevitable justice of the wild. It is a story of beauty as both blessing and curse, survival, revenge, and the primal law that always collects its due.
