Haven

Praise for Haven:

“Deeply unsettling. . . . Reading this book is like ingesting psychedelics, blundering into a dystopian-themed house of mirrors and realizing that someone has locked the door. . . . It will truly creep you out.”—Sarah Lyall, The New York Times

“There were times while reading Ani Katz’s taut, propulsive new novel, Haven, that I thought I was losing my mind. . . . An exploration of power dynamics, surveillance, colonialism, toxic masculinity.”
—Chicago Tribune

“Haven not only draws a timeless portrait of early motherhood, it unflinchingly examines how much of our humanity we’re willing to sacrifice for comfort. Absorbing and uncanny.”
—Tracy Sierra, author of Nightwatching

“Hands down the trippiest book I’ve read all year, Ani Katz’s Haven marries the feverish anxiety of new motherhood with a level of techno-paranoia worthy of Black Mirror. Plotted on shifting sands, and with a cast of inscrutable locals, mystical card games, a teenage coven, and a missing baby, Haven operates as both a futuristic fable as well as a truly unhinged thriller.”
—Ellie Eaton, author of The Divines

“A masterpiece of tension. . . . Technology, hubris, deception, and mistrust combine in an unsettling corporate dystopia that asks what ends would justify which means. Riveting, thought-provoking, and ever surprising, Haven is not for the easily unnerved.”
—Shelf Awareness

“Tight plotting and smooth narrative sleight-of-hand set the table for a walloping final few pages. This dark glimpse into maternal anxiety and tech oligarchy enthralls.”
—Publishers Weekly

“An unsettling, tautly plotted thriller that explores the dark side of scientific research.”
