“Alice” by Christina Henry
The Old City is a warren of crumbling buildings and desperate people and home to a hospital with cinderblock walls that echo the screams of the poor souls inside. In the hospital, there is a woman with hair once blond, hanging in tangles down her back. She doesn’t remember why she’s in such a terrible place. She only remembers a tea party long ago, and long ears and blood.
Then, one night, a fire at the hospital gives the woman a chance to escape, and she tumbles out of the hole that imprisoned her, leaving her free to uncover the truth about what happened to her.
But something dark and powerful has escaped with her. To find the truth, she will have to track this beast to the very heart of the Old City, where the rabbit waits for his Alice.
