Book Overview

2025 NEW YORK PUBLIC LIBRARY BEST NEW COMICS FOR ADULTS

"A beautiful, unsettling, and ultimately touching story about connection, transformation, and the possibility of moving forward in life, despite the burden of an unresolved past." --Library Journal (starred review)

"...Fishflies is a grotesquely addictive, trypophobic nightmare epic." --Shelf Awareness (starred review)

"...a wretchedly detailed story of loyalty, trauma, and living on the outside." --Booklist (starred review)

A strange and surreal new tale of friendship and small town life from the creator of SWEET TOOTH and DESCENDER.

A small town crime sets off a chain of events that will permanently alter the lives of several residents of bucolic Belle River, Ontario. As the manhunt heats up, a lonely girl named Franny Fox forms an unlikely friendship with a fugitive that leads them both on an odyssey of discovery and redemption... a journey that also uncovers dark secrets from the town's eery past.
