The Withering Rose - Second Edition - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

A house of whispers. A child who knows too much. A darkness that does not sleep.

Cast from privilege into ruin, Evangeline the daughter of a disgraced nobleman finds herself abandoned to the merciless streets of London. When desperation leaves her with no choice, she accepts a position as governess at a remote and forbidding estate, unaware that she is stepping into a place steeped in silence and fear.

The child entrusted to her care is unnervingly watchful, haunted by secrets no child should carry. The father, a man of wealth and chilling authority, rules the household with a presence so cruel it stains the very walls. His gaze lingers. His power suffocates. And the house itself seems to conspire with him.

As buried truths claw their way to the surface, Evangeline is drawn into a deadly struggle where innocence is a liability and trust is a lie. The boundary between guardian and victim begins to fracture and escape may come at a terrible cost.

To protect the child, Evangeline must face the evil tightening its grip upon the estate. But some webs are spun to ensnare all who enter... and not everyone who dares to flee survives.
