Signa Farrow has been stalked by death all her life, literally. She was orphaned as a baby, all of her avaricious guardians since then have perished and Death himself is her longest standing relationship. When she is invited to live with the Hawthorn family she finds them in mourning for their wife/mother and Death is already preparing to take another member of the family. Signa must work with Death and the ghosts of the house to unmask a murderer and save her cousin.
‘Belladonna’ is a lyrical and atmospheric blend of fantasy romance and mystery. (And the Fairyloot edition is exquisitely beautiful!) Loved it.
