Reviews
"Enthralling . . . The combination of LaValle's agile prose, the velocity of the narrative and the pleasure of upended expectations makes this book almost impossible to put down . . . Lone Women deftly weaves history, horror, suspense and the perspectives of those rarely recorded in the West." -- The New York Times "LaValle gets coy in Lone Women, teasing us by trickling details that gradually reveal Adelaide's intricate connection to the creature. Meanwhile, he adroitly intertwines the eerie fairy tale with early 20th-century historical realism . . ." -- The Washington Post "A blend of historical fiction and horror that you won't be able to put down." --The Root "Hold your breath as you read, but LaValle has built a brutal and compelling portrait of early-twentieth-century America that may just keep you up at night." -- Chicago Review of Books "In his new book, Lone Women , author Victor LaValle transports readers to the desolate plains of 1915 Montana . . . though it's set more than a century ago, this eerie story of a haunted would-be homesteader cobbling together a life she doesn't want to escape from feels both prescient and modern." --ESSENCE "If you haven't read a LaValle novel, prepare to stock up. LaValle combines chills with deep insights into our country's divides." -- Los Angeles Times "Victor LaValle is one of the best . . . and Lone Women is an absolute page turner. It's a tale of hardship and strength and community, but also of the creeping quiet of the American Midwest, of loneliness, and the hauntings we cannot rid ourselves of." -- Tordotcom " Lone Women is a searing and unsettling mixture of historical detail, western imagery, and terrifying twists and turns, from an author who continues to reinvent horror with every page." -- Crime Reads "Highly recommended for historical fiction readers just as much as die-hard horror fans." -- Vulture "LaValle's work is always darkly magical, suspenseful and deeply compelling. . . . [In] Lone Women . . . expect richness, surprise and beauty from this visionary new rendering of the historic American West." -- Salon "The novel is, in a word, delightful, and whether or not it is the first Victor LaValle book you pick up, it most certainly won't be your last." --LitReactor "Let me tell you this about Victor LaValle: he is a man we can trust. I won't give anything else away, but I will say that I loved the ending. Two thumbs up." --Emma Straub "An expert at suspense, LaValle is at his best in the American West's untamed wilds." --People "[A] tightly written horror novel . . . This is such an absorbing, powerful horror novel with one of the best endings I've read in a while." --Buzzfeed "Some books, special books, have a narrative style that grab the reader by the throat while whispering the words of angels in the ear . . . Lone Women [is] such a fine read, one that will stick in readers' memories long after the book is closed." -- Cemetery Dance "Violent delights abound in this historical horror tale from one of the genre's most exciting voices . . . rich in secrets, suspense, and dread, LaValle's latest is a gripping and heartfelt thriller about how lone women survive a harsh world." -- Esquire "The author of The Changeling transforms genre in an arresting blend of history, horror, and suspense, showcasing a Black woman's odyssey through the American West at the beginning of the 20th century." -- Oprah Daily, Praise for Victor LaValle "If the literary gods mixed together Haruki Murakami and Ralph Ellison, and threw in several fistfuls of twenty-first-century attitude, the result would be Victor LaValle." --Anthony Doerr, author of All the Light We Cannot See and Cloud Cuckoo Land "One of the reasons to read Victor LaValle's novels is the simple sentence-by-sentence pleasure of them--they offer hundreds of baby dopamine hits, tiny baths for the prose snob's reward system. His imagination is unusually visual. . . . If monsters are your subject, writing like an angel helps." -- The New York Times "Nobody is better at combining daily struggles and the supernatural than LaValle." --Bookforum "LaValle uses the thrills of horror to draw attention to timely matters. And he does so without sucking the joy out of the genre. . . . A striking and original American novelist." -- The New Republic "Victor LaValle is one of the finest writers around--puzzling but never abstruse, compassionate but never pitying." --Kevin Brockmeier, author of The Brief History of the Dead, "Victor LaValle is one of the most exciting authors working in the horror genre today, and with this new novel he turns his skills at suspense and terror to the American West. Hold your breath as you read, but LaValle has built a brutal and compellingportrait of early-twentieth-century America that may just keep you up at night." -- Chicago Review of Books "If you haven't read a LaValle novel, prepare to stock up. You'll want more once you've sped through this propulsive concoction of genre tropes--from western themes to gothic twists . . . LaValle combines chills with deep insights into our country's divides." -- Los Angeles Times , "10 Books to Read in March" "A blend of historical fiction and horror that you won't be able to put down." --The Root, "March 2023 Books by Black Authors We Can't Wait to Read" "[A] tense horror novel that'll have you flipping pages faster than you can say 'keep the lights on'. . . A well-plotted, genre-blending tale that ratchets up the suspense and weaves mystery throughout (what, we ask, is in that trunk?), Lone Women is must-read fiction." -- Readers Digest, " 52 Best Books by Black Authors You'll Want to Know About" " Lone Women is a searing and unsettling mixture of historical detail, western imagery, and terrifying twists and turns, from an author who continues to reinvent horror with every page." -- Crime Reads , "20 Horror Novels to Look Out for in 2023" "LaValle's vivid, three-dimensional characters are always a draw, and this fascinating cast is a real treat, plus he introduces lesser-known pieces of American history in a way that never feels didactic. . . . Highly recommended for historical fiction readers just as much as die-hard horror fans." -- Vulture , "31 Books We Can't Wait to Read in 2023" "LaValle's work is always darkly magical, suspenseful and deeply compelling. . . . [In] Lone Women LaValle tells the story of Adelaide, a homesteading woman in 1915 Montana with secrets--and a giant steamer trunk. Expect richness, surprise and beauty from this visionary new rendering of the historic American West." -- Salon , "22 books we're looking forward to in 2023" "Beguiling . . . Acrobatic storytelling, both out there and down-home." -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review) "A counter to the typical homesteading narrative, this moody and masterful western fires on all cylinders. Readers are sure to be impressed." -- Publishers Weekly

It's locked at all times. Because when the trunk opens, people around Adelaide start to disappear. The year is 1915, and Adelaide is in trouble.
