A group of vampirical frenemies come face to face with their immortality in this off-the-beaten-timeline short story from Olivie Blake, New York Times bestselling author of The Atlas Six. What do you get when you throw together a PTA president, a dissipated rake, a poor little match-girl, a colonial nun, and an elderly revolutionary? No, it’s not the start of a joke; it’s the cast of undead characters sharing a Victorian mansion in Santa Monica, California. The motley housemates can usually keep the bickering to a minimum—but when their clashing personalities get stuck in a rut, they suffer what could be a terminal case of déjà vu. Olivie Blake’s All Manner of Thing Shall Be is part of The Time Traveler’s Passport_, an unforgettable collection of stories about memory, identity, and choice. Watch time fly as you read or listen to each short story in a single sitting._
