Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Denise has worked hospice for twenty years. She has watched hundreds of people die, and she knows exactly how it goes.She is the one families ask for. The one who stays when the room goes quiet. The one who handles it. Always, without being asked, without hesitation.Then a pattern she cannot unsee begins to surface in the deaths she attends: patients who seem, impossibly, to be chosen. And the longer Denise watches, the harder it becomes to tell where her devotion to the dying ends and something else begins.THE PREFERRED is a work of literary horror about the cost of being needed. A slow, suffocating portrait of a woman confronting the shape of her own staying.From the author of 71ST and The Eighth Morning.
