THE STORY THAT WILL CONSUME YOU

An outcast her entire life, Corvina Clemm is left adrift after losing her mother. When an admission letter arrives from the mysterious University of Verenmore, she takes it as a sign. What she finds is an old, secluded castle on top of a mountain — riddled with secrets, deceit, and death.

Vad Deverell is an enigma. A part-time professor working on his thesis, he has been at Verenmore long enough to know its dangers. And the moment his path crosses with Corvina's, he knows one thing with certainty.

She is dangerous to everything that he is.

They shouldn't have caught each other's eye. They cannot be. But a chill-inducing century-old mystery forces them to collide. People have disappeared every five years for a hundred years. Corvina is getting closer to unravelling it all. And Vad needs to keep an eye on her.

The mysterious. The morbid. The macabre.
And a deep love that blossoms in the unlikeliest of places.
