Cg Drews: Hazelthorn, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Knives Out meets Belladonna in this gorgeously gothic queer YA horror and dark romance about an inherited estate, murderous relatives, and a garden with a taste for blood, from the New York Times bestselling author of Don't Let the Forest In and The Boy Who Steals Houses.

Sixteen-year-old Evander lives like a ghost in the forgotten corners of the Hazelthorn Estate, taken in by his reclusive billionaire grandfather when he was a child after his older siblings tried to kill him.

When his grandfather dies, Evander inherits the entirety of his estate. There's just one catch: he must choose a guardian from his scheming, backstabbing relatives to care for Hazelthorn until he turns eighteen. All of them are suspects in his grandfather's murder and Evander is forced to enlist the help of the gardener's daughter, his childhood enemy, to solve it.

But as his family's dark secrets unravel, Hazelthorn's garden is overgrowing. Vicious vines crawl through the house, moss bleeds though the walls, and poisonous mushrooms flourish beneath the floorboards. Evander needs to find out what he's really inheriting before the garden demands to be fed.
