A lush and twisted dark fairy tale suffused with witchcraft, dark
secrets and bitter revenge from the award-winning author of All the
Murmuring Bones. Exquisite, haunting and at times brutal, readers
of Naomi Novik and Erin Morgenstern will be entranced. Asher Todd
comes to live with the mysterious Morwood family as a governess to
their children. Asher knows little about being a governess but she
is skilled in botany and herbcraft, and perhaps more than that. And
she has secrets of her own, dark and terrible - and Morwood is a
house that eats secrets. With a monstrous revenge in mind, Asher
plans to make it choke. However, she becomes fond of her charges,
of the people of the Tarn, and she begins to wonder if she will be
able to execute her plan - and who will suffer most if she does.
But as the ghosts of her past become harder to control, Asher
realises she has no choice. From the author of All the Murmuring
Bones, dark magic, retribution and twisted family secrets combine
to weave a bewitching and beautifully written gothic fairy tale.
