Her debut novel, Dead Daddy Issues, released in July 2024, tells the story of Tarot reader Leia Sparks who, haunted by a secret guilt at her father’s funeral, confesses the truth about her father’s death to a Catholic priest. Exploring fate, forgiveness and the lingering impact of our relationship with our parents, Dead Daddy Issues showcases DaCosta’s fresh storytelling voice and challenges the reader to contemplate the moral ambiguities of personal freedom.
This October, readers can expect her novelette, One Week of Good Deeds written in the style of Dirty Realism made famous by such authors as Carver & Bukowski, further cementing her reputation for crafting poignant, slice-of-life tales.
DaCosta's unique perspective is informed by her eclectic background, including years as a massage therapist and Tarot reader. These experiences infuse her writing with a deep understanding of human nature and the unseen forces that shape our lives.
