What intrigued me the most about this book is that it is a mystery waiting to be solved. Piecing together the mystery with the clues you are given is really fun. 

The main story is about Ivy a young women who suddenly becomes the sole heir to the Blackwood abbey. With her being the only one still alive from her family she is determined to make a new life for herself that is less lonely. She agrees to inherit the Abbey but quickly finds out that everything is not as it seems. The staff seem rude and theres a room they do not want her to go in. 

The story gripped me straight away and it was often hard to put the book down. I loved the premise to it and the book is a good mystery all the way through. As the pieces start to click together things get more and more sinster. 

No spoilers as this book is not out yet and was won in a giveaway from story graph.
