What beautifully dark story with a flood of healing and redemption. The main character Opal is a fighter and life hasn't been kind. Then Starling House starts to call her and soon she finds herself entranced by the owner and a house that is alive. This book follows a supernatural bend. It is carefully done. By the end you ask yourself is a nightmare really a bad dream.
Moderate: Car accident and Death of parent
Minor: Sexual assault
