Discover a haunting Victorian Gothic tale where family secrets, supernatural terror, and the unbreakable bond between sisters collide in the wild moors of Northumberland...

When desperate poverty forces Eliza Harrow to accept a mysterious inheritance from her estranged uncle, she believes her prayers have been answered. Withering House—a remote Gothic manor in the windswept Northumberland countryside—promises refuge from her precarious existence in Victorian London.

But the house harbors secrets that stretch back three centuries. Local villagers speak in whispers of lights in empty windows, of crying that echoes from sealed rooms, and of a young woman who vanished ten years ago during a terrible fire. As Eliza delves deeper into her family's dark history, she uncovers evidence of supernatural experiments, ancient compacts with otherworldly entities, and a twin sister she never knew existed—one whose spirit remains trapped between life and death.

Isadora Harrow was meant to be a sacrifice. Now Eliza must decide if she's willing to become one.

Armed with only her intelligence, courage, and an ornate silver locket that pulses with mystical energy, Eliza must navigate the treacherous world of Victorian spiritualism to understand the supernatural forces that have plagued her bloodline for generations. But the entities that claimed her sister have been waiting patiently for her arrival, and they have no intention of releasing their hold on the Harrow family.

As All Hallows' Eve approaches and the veil between worlds grows thin, Eliza faces an impossible choice: flee and abandon her sister's tormented spirit forever, or risk everything in a supernatural confrontation that will determine not just her own fate, but the freedom of countless future generations.

"A masterfully atmospheric Gothic horror that honors the great tradition of Victorian supernatural fiction while delivering genuine chills and emotional depth."

Perfect for readers who love the atmospheric terror of The Silent Companions, the historical authenticity of The Essex Serpent, and the supernatural romance of The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue.
