‘I’ll be killed for telling this story. It’s been seen. I’ve been warned. But I’m telling it anyway . . . ’

THE GENRE-BENDING AND EPIC TALE STEEPED IN FOLKLORE, REBELLION AND MAGIC, FROM EXCITING NEW DEBUT AUTHOR, RAELLE TUCKER.

Obscura is a dazzling Mediterranean island, world-famous for its wild nightlife—sex, drugs, and cutting-edge dance music.

While tourists flood the southern beaches, the rural North of the island is a no-man’s land of treacherous dirt roads and 'No Trespassing' signs.

Those who dare to venture there rarely make it back.

Because the mountains of the North aren’t just “cursed” as the locals believe—they are secretly home to a community of magical beings, who fled thousands of years of persecution to build a utopian society where they can live undisguised and unashamed of their hidden powers.

It’s a place free of human interference—until Artemis, a girl with secrets of her own, saves a dying boy and smuggles him into her homeland. This act of rebellion sets off a reckoning that uncovers the lies, hypocrisies, and brutality on which her community was built.

Now Artemis must choose: protect the world that made her, or burn it down to tell the truth.

Reviews

Refreshingly original, sexy and unexpectedly moving, Obscura is a page turning novel about family, secrets and the dangerous business of truly being seen. Loved it.
A lush and brilliantly imagined tale about magical creatures living on the outskirts of human existence, OBSCURA is a love letter to the outsider seeking home.
Obscura is a playful invitation to a wildly imaginative secret world ... It's a love letter to chosen family—and a cautionary tale about the sacrifices required to protect them ... This is a book for the misfits, for the people who dream of there being a little more magic in the world. More than anything, Obscura is a shimmering, earnest ode to the power of the stories we choose to tell.
A fast paced, hypnotic joyride of a novel. Tucker has spun a world of magic, gorgeous oddities and family secrets, where we are left to ponder what happens when clannishness and us vs them mentality goes too far. Absolutely entertaining and whip smart.
