Emily Slaughter Carver

A century-old vampire from New Orleans reunites with an ailing journalist to recount his life of bloodlust and his tumultuous relationship with the rakish Frenchman who turned him.

After the sudden death of her husband, Juniper Buchanan channels her grief into a series of hilariously misguided life choices. With her husband's urn as her constant companion, she slips into a world of denial that's equal parts touching and chaotic. "Hey, Juniper!" is a dark comedy about the messy, ridiculous ways we stumble through the unbearable.
