An orphaned Signa is passed from guardian to guardian until she moves into Thorn Grove to live with her distant, wealthy relatives. And for the first time, she doesn’t feel like they’re more interested in her impending inheritance than her. 
 
In an attempt to save her cousin from the same mysterious illness that took her aunt, she must confront Death himself—the man that’s haunted her nearly since birth. Oh, did I not mention that Signa can see spirits? 
 
This mysterious, gothic novel has an eerie ambiance, a touch of romance, and a flirtatious relationship with Death. While this was a fun read, it felt a little too young adult for me.
