Your name is no curse, Little Bird. I just like the taste of it.

For as long as Signa Farrow has been alive, the people in her life have fallen like stars . . .

Orphaned as a baby, nineteen-year-old Signa has been raised by a string of guardians, each more interested in her wealth than her wellbeing - and each has met an untimely end. Her only remaining relatives are the elusive Hawthornes, an eccentric family living at the sprawling manor house of Thorn Grove.

When a restless spirit appears claiming she was poisoned, Signa realises the family she depends on could be in grave danger, and enlists the help of a surly stable boy to hunt down the killer.

But Signa's best chance of uncovering the murderer is an alliance with Death himself, a dangerous shadow who has never been far from her side. As the mystery unfurls, it soon becomes clear their growing connection may be more powerful - and more irresistible - than she dared imagine . . .

From the Sunday Times bestselling author of The Wretched Divine, the Belladonna series is set in a sumptuous gothic fantasy world inspired by the Victorian era fusing spellbinding mystery with heart-wrenching romance - unmissable for fans of One Dark Window by Rachel Gillig, The Crimson Moth by Kristen Ciccarelli, and Divine Rivals by Rebecca Ross.
