Pretty Things Die Here
Six names. One prophecy. A lake that never forgets. Welcome to Saint Hallowmere. The lake took her once. It's hungry again. In the chapel, the nuns speak in tongues. In the hallways, the rich kids wear masks. But Isolde isn't here to pray. She's here to uncover the truth - even if it means becoming a monster herself. The Hallowmere Trinity Six has begun. Pretty things die here. They said she came to be saved. They didn't ask what she wanted saving from. At St. Hallowmere Academy, the girls are porcelain-perfect. The boys are blood-slicked blades. The chapel smells like sin, and the lake still remembers the girl it drowned. Beneath velvet uniforms and cathedral ceilings, six students are marked. A curse older than the school is starting to breathe again - in locker doors that slam shut on their own, in prayers scratched into desks, in lipstick-stained teeth and broken rules. One will betray. One will be sacrificed. One will never be found. But before that... There will be secrets exchanged in dark corners. Mouths on mouths in confession booths. Girls kissing in graveyards. Cigarettes still burning after the body disappears. And when the storm comes... the pretty ones will die first. A Saint's Blood novel. Welcome to the Hallowmere Trinity Six. Pray you're not one of them.

The Tales and Tellings of Hallows' Grove (MM)
Henry Everwood has lived in Hallows' Grove his entire life amongst superstitious townspeople. Despite his patient denial of the rumours circulating his practices, Henry is indeed the witch people fear him to be, though he hardly uses his magic for anything more than his cooking and housecleaning. Come October, Henry forbids the usually wandering ghosts from entering his home. One, however, makes it through his warding without knowing how or why he did it. Edward appears in Henry's house with no memory of his living life, his family, or his last name. Henry prepares to send him back to the howlite path, a trail of magic stones that leads ghosts to their afterlife, when a terrible memory resurfaces-Edward had been murdered. Not only that, but Henry and Edward quickly discover that Edward is alive only when he's touching Henry. With unanswered questions from both ends, Henry accepts to help Edward look into his murder, why the connection between them is so strong, and reveal whether or not the new blonde woman in town and her brother know more about magic than they're letting on. But what happens when Henry and Edward start to fall for each other? What happens when Henry's long-kept family secret is uncovered? It is, after all, as Mr. Cross, the cranky old town librarian, had warned-terrible things happen when you involve an Everwood.Abgeschlossene Geschichte
