I can’t want to see what Pell does next!” —Christopher Golden, New York Times bestselling author of The Night Birds and The House of Last Resort
While searching for her missing brother, Cordelia finds herself ensnared in the machinations of an enigmatic lady botanist who runs an isolated estate devoted to traumatized women who seem particularly devoted to her lush gardens.
