Patricia Wants to Cuddle

The final four contestants on The Catch arrive on a remote Pacific Northwest island expecting another round of manufactured romance. Some want love, some want attention, and all must navigate a production built around turning their lives into entertainment. Beyond the cameras, an island resident named Patricia is looking for connection of her own. When the cast and crew venture into the surrounding wilderness, their carefully managed competition begins to unravel. The threats they encounter cannot be edited into a predictable television storyline. Mixing reality-show satire with queer horror, the novel follows women confronting the distance between the roles they perform and the lives they actually want.
