About this item
Midnight is the Darkest Hour by Ashley Winstead is a chilling exploration of murder, obsessive love, and the dark impulses that reside within even the most devout individuals. Set in the small, insular town of Bottom Springs, Louisiana, the story centers around Ruth Cornier, a librarian who has always felt like an outsider. Ruth's father, a fire-and-brimstone preacher at Holy Fire Baptist, dominates the town's spiritual life, instilling fear of God and the Devil in the hearts of the townspeople.

However, even greater than their fear of divine retribution are the local legends, particularly that of the Low Man—a vampiric figure rumored to prey on sinners during moonless nights. The discovery of a skull in the swamp, accompanied by mysterious symbols, sends the town into a frenzy. Ruth, recognizing the significance of these events, teams up with Everett, an old friend with a shadowy past, to delve into Bottom Springs' hidden truths and confront the true evil lurking there.

Winstead crafts a dark, atmospheric narrative that not only delves into the macabre but also scrutinizes the complex dynamics of love, religion, and power. Through Ruth's journey, the novel examines the societal expectations placed on women and the struggle to reclaim agency in a world that often seeks to suppress it. Fans of Verity and A Flicker in the Dark will appreciate the novel's blend of psychological suspense and Southern Gothic horror, as well as its incisive commentary on the monstrous work of being a girl in a world fraught with danger and deceit.
