Misunderstood and overmedicated, twelve-year-old Lilith Bloom finds the prospect of a grand family reunion decidedly dull... That is, until she discovers that the rose garden surrounding her grandfather's Berlin mansion is, well, completely and utterly carnivorous. Armed with Panther, her talking pet whippet, and the help of the mute boy next door, Lilith must unravel the secrets behind the mysterious estate, all while her family remains gloriously unaware that they are about to be devoured.

When Jamie Cavanagh's 8-year old sister Sunny is diagnosed with terminal cancer, it seems like Jamie's whole world comes crashing down around her. Sunny's only chance to live is through a bone marrow transplant, but neither Jamie nor her brother Chris are a match, and the only other person that could possibly be one is their older brother Aidan. The problem? No one really knows where Aidan is. Jamie hasn't seen him since she was 10 years old. And considering their history, she isn't looking forward to meeting him again. Nevertheless, in a last-ditch effort to try and save their sister, Jamie and Chris decide to track down Aidan, learning more than they bargained for on the way. Cover by @_TheSeaSoul_

Because Pit cares about everything, and he always cares too much. [[word count: 70,000-80,000 words]]
