When Thora finds herself arriving in a small mountainside Colorado town, she thinks the grim complexities of her home life are what she should be running from. Instead, she finds herself immersed in the beauty and deceitful culture of Aderith, a gothic and enchanted town. It's not just breathtaking- it's full of dark and ancient secrets. Each answer she gets pulls her deeper into the dark intrigue, with each warning begging the question: Is it deadly to know too much? "There is something very wrong with this place. It walks around like a gentleman at a masquerade, but if it ever asks you to dance, Thora, you have to say no. You might not see it yet, but it's coming." This gothic horror is a quick but merciless read.
