Darling is a small isolated town, made up of small-town people who have small-town kids who rarely leave; it is the last place anyone would expect to find a visitor from another world, but that is what Starling Rust claims to be, and the town-folk, led by their corrupt mayor, are terrified--the Wilding sisters, Delta and Bee, are determined to protect Starling from the town's escalating xenophobia but the growing feelings between Starling and Delta may prove to be the greatest threat of all.
Set in a hauntingly atmospheric gothic backdrop, a girl faces her fears as she returns to the house that claimed her sister's life, driven by the urgent need to rescue her other sister. The narrative weaves tension and dread, echoing themes of familial bonds and the supernatural, reminiscent of classic tales like The Haunting of Hill House. As she confronts the mysteries of the past, the chilling atmosphere amplifies the stakes, making her journey both perilous and poignant.
