Writer David Pickney and Pia Prado have teamed for the young adult original graphic novel, Sarah and Darah: Best Frenemies Forever, scheduled for release in May 2025.
At age 12, Darah, the exiled daughter of Thomas Benson, the butler of The Havenmeyers, returns after five years to seek revenge on Sarah Havenmeyer, the girl who “destroyed” her life. It was Sarah’s misinformation that made her parents exile Darah to Alaska where she had no life whatsoever. Now, Darah has returned, and the school has erupted in a frenzy–isn’t Darah The Placeside Pyro? Why has she returned? Sarah won’t let anyone get between her and her esteemed social standing. But as it turns out, Darah won’t back down from a fight, and she is ready to destroy Sarah by knocking her off her social pedestal…and telling everyone the truth.
“Sarah and Darah was a challenge to put together,” David Pinckney said. “We wanted to tell a story with relatable themes that don’t get touched on often in all-ages media and present them in a unique way that was engaging and accessible. Working closely with the editors to shape how we wanted to deliver these messages and coupled with art and letters that compliment the story beautifully, I think we made something that will truly resonate positively with readers.”
Sarah and Darah: Best Frenemies Forever is scheduled to arrive on May 13, 2025.
