Knives Out meets Belladonna in this gorgeously gothic queer YA horror and dark romance about an inherited estate, murderous relatives, and a garden with a taste for blood, from the New York Times bestselling author of Don't Let the Forest In and The Boy Who Steals Houses. Evander has lived like a ghost in the forgotten corners of the Hazelthorn estate ever since he was taken in by his reclusive billionaire guardian. For his own safety, he can never leave the estate, he can never go in the gardens and he can never be left alone with the underachieving yet charming Laurie, who tried to kill him seven years ago. No matter how obsessed with him Evander is. When his guardian is murdered, Evander inherits the entirety of the estate and its wealth, but Laurie may be the only one who can help him find the killer before they come for him next. As dark family secrets unravel, vicious vines crawl through the house, moss bleeds though the walls and poisonous mushrooms flourish beneath the floorboards. Evander must find out what he's inheriting before Hazelthorn's garden demands to be fed once more.
