Perfect for you if...

  • You love atmospheric gothic fiction that blends psychological mystery with supernatural elements, especially when set in crumbling Southern estates.
  • You're drawn to character studies about women carrying generational trauma and the stories that families keep hidden.
  • You appreciate slow-burn narratives where time and memory become unreliable, and the past bleeds into the present.

Maybe not for you if...

  • You prefer plot-driven stories with clear resolutions and answers. This one trades certainty for ambiguity.
  • You want fast-paced narratives. The pacing here is deliberate and meditative, which some find slow.
  • You're looking for uplifting stories. This is steeped in loss, regret, and the weight of unresolved history.

About this book

In the summer of 1925, Sadie Halloran, a young woman devastated by her mother's death and a broken engagement, accepts a position as live-in companion to her great-aunt Marguerite at Blackberry Grange, a once-grand mansion in Arkansas. Marguerite, a renowned artist now suffering from dementia, is compelled to paint disturbing, hallucinatory portraits of her past lovers—some cherished, some regretted, and some frightening. As Sadie settles into the old house, time and reality begin to shift. Sadie must uncover the secrets binding Marguerite to her past before the truth disappears entirely and Marguerite's life slips away. A novel about family secrets, sacrifice, and lost loves.
