Five years ago, Dahlia Everen died inside her own house on Willowshade Lane.
Her best friends, Evangeline Rosaline and Iris Solane, were the ones who found her-until her body vanished, leaving behind only a trail of blood and silence.
Now, on the fifth anniversary of her death, the girls return to the place they swore never to enter again. But something is waiting. The house feels different. And Dahlia... has come back home.
She doesn't look the same. Smile the same. But the shadows around her stretch too long, and the mirrors won't reflect her the way she was.
Because in the Elegy House, nothing is the same as before.
Not even the ones we thought we knew.
