Bloomsbury presents They Bloom at Night by Trang Thanh Tran, read by Nhi Do.

The author of the New York Times bestselling horror phenomenon She Is a Haunting is back with a novel about the monsters that swim beneath us . . . and live within us.

Since the hurricane, the town of Mercy, Louisiana has been overtaken by a strange red algae bloom. Noon and her mother have carved out a life in the wreckage, trawling for the mutated wildlife that lurks in the water and trading it to the corrupt harbormaster. When she’s focused on survival, Noon doesn’t have to cope with what happened to her at the Cove or the monster itching at her skin.

Mercy has never been a safe place, but it’s getting worse. People are disappearing, and the only clues as to why are whispers of underwater shadows and warnings to never answer the knocks at night. When the harbormaster demands she capture the creature that’s been drowning residents, Noon finds a reluctant ally in his daughter Covey. And as the next storm approaches, the two set off to find what’s haunting Mercy. After all, Noon is no stranger to monsters . . .©2025 Trang Thanh Tran (P)2025 Bloomsbury Publishing PLC

A story for everyone who wants to tear off their skin and craves the strange ache of becoming something new. This book molts and chews itself raw under your fingers. It's perfect
A literary tour-de-force that should go down in history as a masterclass in atmospheric and terrifying writing.
A briny, rotting ode to the things we must become to survive and the things we yearn to become when the surviving is over. In elegant, atmospheric prose, Trang Thanh Tran peels back layers of salty skin and sea foam to expose the truth: even when we are wrong, even when we are monstrous, we are whole.
Trang Thanh Tran has created a horrifying, mesmerizing world that's not too far from our own, challenging us to examine who the real monsters truly are.
Gorgeous, gruesome, and fiercely cathartic, They Bloom at Night is body horror with a beating heart.
A stunning exploration of healing from trauma in nature, in relationships, and within ourselves. A mesmerizing novel with visceral descriptions that are both gorgeous and terrifying.
A visceral tale of loss and what it costs us to endure it.
Contrasts the disturbing with the beauty of human connection. . . . A moving contemplation on queerness and gender identity, the immigrant experience, and moving beyond survival to fight back against oppressors.
A strange and grisly tale of what we can survive to get closer to our truest selves, deeply infused with Vietnamese cultural concepts.
Trang Thanh Tran writes about monsters real and imagined with luminous language, a rich sense of place (haunted Louisiana waters) and nonbinary and trans kids as compelling personalities. . . . Readers come away believing that an ability for gritty transformation--to create our own strengths, to find our genuine selves, to take revenge where necessary and to love well wherever possible--is within reach of all of us.
Tran fills the pages with sensory detail, creating a haunting setting that immerses readers in their worldbuilding. Noon is a complex and multifaceted protagonist, whose reckoning with trauma and selfhood (especially gender identity and Vietnamese ancestry) is the emotional center anchoring the extraordinary plot events.
Tran weaves a pulsing-pounding climate disaster thriller.
The atmospheric, immersive descriptions of the setting underscore the vital symbiotic relationship between human and nature that gets ignored in the pursuit of capitalistic extraction.
The author's brilliant, visceral descriptions slink over the skin and dig into the marrow.
The thematic horror elements are beautifully executed, anchored in Noon’s pensive voice.
A riveting debut from a remarkable new voice! Trang Thanh Tran weaves an impressive gothic mystery in which Jade's father is determined to restore a decrepit home to its former glory and Jade is the only person who feels the soul-crushing devastation of colonialism lingering within its walls.
