Aprašymas

Set in a crumbling castle by the sea, where the balls and matchmaking of regency England combine with a dark fairy tale magic, this debut gothic fantasy told from the perspective of two very different sisters will sweep you away.

Lord¿Evermore¿must be going mad - it is the only explanation his daughters can find to shed light on his sudden obsession with forcing them to become engaged. According to him, they must marry by eighteen ... or die.

So perfect Annabel Lee and morose Lenore find themselves thrust into a week¿of¿elaborate balls hosted in their castle at the edge¿of¿an eroding sea cliff.¿ But soon, the sisters discover their father might not be mad after all.

The fabled¿Evermore¿Curse has thrust the family into a dangerous game with¿ghosts¿of¿the past. As the sisters unravel the mystery¿of¿the curse, the stakes rise to a fever pitch. Lives are on the line, romances blossom in the darkness, and the tragedies¿of¿the past must be uncovered in order to prevent even darker events from unfolding in the present . . .

Perfect for fans of Belladonna and A Study in Drowning.
