Welcome to VILOXIN
After their world-famous mother disappeared under mysterious circumstances, Manon and Thaïs left their remote Mediterranean home—sent away by their pharma-tech tycoon father. Opposites in every way, the sisters drifted apart in their grief. Yet their mother's unfinished story still haunts them both, and they can't put to rest the possibility that she is still alive.
Lured home a decade later, Manon and Thaïs discover their mother’s legendary last work, long thought lost: White Fox, a screenplay filled with enigmatic metaphors. The clues in this dark fairytale draw them deep into society's surreal underbelly, into the twisted secrets hidden by their glittering family, to reveal the truth about their mother—and themselves.

“Eerie and sly, White Fox is a trap waiting to be sprung. I was completely enthralled.”
“White Fox fills you with luscious dread. Faring’s prose is a fever dream—her rich setting and poignant exploration of sisterhood and family ties had me racing to get to the end of the tale.”
“Faring, an imaginative, tactile, and immensely quotable wordsmith, explores the complexities of sisterhood and grief with a deft hand, and her unusual island setting, with its futuristic touches, draws readers in with a sensuous warmth that belies the sharp teeth beneath its surface... A lush and hypnotic modern fairy tale.”
“Atmospheric, arresting… A tangled, dangerous web of family secrets. Faring’s gorgeous prose deftly handles three distinct narratives ... while the mix of evocative fairy-tale elements and emblematic near-future technology creates an eerie, dread-laden mood. An engrossing, genre-defying read.”
“Lined with an eerie, electric, and darkly glittering sense of dread, and filled to the brim with luminous prose, White Fox will sink its teeth into you from the very first page. As much a tale of two sisters as it is a sinister, speculative story of a missing mother, it is the details that give this inventive novel its sharpest bits: a place called the Delirium Forest; a lost script that reads like an ancient fairy tale; and the wholly realized Mediterranean island on which it is set. Sara Faring’s latest is a perfect fit for fans of Marisha Pessl or Sadie by Courtney Summers.”
“Sara Faring is the King Midas of atmospheric mysteries - everything she touches turns to gold. Faring’s sophomore novel, White Fox, is an atmospheric masterpiece.”
“Glamorous, mysterious, and compelling, Sara Faring’s sophomore novel will make you feel as if you’ve just stepped into a glitzy black-and-white film. White Fox is alluring and will keep readers invested long past the final page.”
“A gripping treasure hunt... Faring conjures an atmospheric, almost fairytale-like setting as the backdrop for two girls seeking long-delayed closure.”
