Maverick, a Mad Cave Studios young adult imprint, is working with Paula Cheshire to deliver In Mourning this August.

This title is available for preordering now, wherever books are sold!

Writer - Paula Cheshire
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN SOMEONE DIES?
The fact of the matter is, no one really knows. What is left behind is what we really know: a tornado of emotions and a feeling of deep, complex change: that what was once there now no longer is.
Paula Cheshire tells the story of her complex feelings and her grieving process after the loss of her mother, walking us through the process of her loss. And, while this loss hurts more than anything, the grieving process—being in mourning—leads to one goal: learning to live with this newfound pain and learning to grow from it without letting it take you over.
Papercutz’s senior editor Lauren Hitzhusen, said, “In Mourning is an incredibly touching book about the nuances and the depth of loss. Death is part of life, but how we engage with death and how it feels to lose someone is a completely unique and individual experience that can last for years. Paula's story of dealing with her own mother's passing is something that readers will find relatable and moving and we're proud to bring it into the Maverick line."
Ranging from slice-of-life to urban fantasy and horror, each Maverick graphic novel shares authentic and personal stories, inviting readers to find themselves within the pages. https://madcavestudios.com/maverick/
