About this book

“We all lived here. In some way. And wherever you live it leaves imprints on you” After the mysterious suicide of their friend, Sloane, Elliott, Cameron, and Ana are just trying to get through the rest of high school. They live in Loving, Ohio—a town built around The Chorus, a new age cult with members firmly planted in positions of power and influence throughout the community.

Through their grief a series of murders throw these friends into a mystery connected to everything around them. Sloane and her friends have to escape a roaming murderer, figure out their place in the world, and deal with loss all in the looming shadow of The Chorus. But through it they will find the true cost of friendship and the adulthood they seek. Gut punching emotion drives the mystery of Loving, Ohio. This beautifully drawn coming of age graphic novel will stay on the mind for days after reading. An expertly crafted tale about what happens when something infects every institution and structure within a community. One of New York Public Library's Best New Comics of 2024 for Adults!
