A beautiful garden filled with "butterflies," women who have been kidnapped, secluded, and tattooed, among other things. The Gardener tends to his precious "specimens" with care and devotion, until everything comes crashing down - and the only person with answers is a young woman named "Maya." 

I loved this book. I loved how it was written, I loved the dialogue, and it kept me so engaged. I can't wait to read the next one.
