BOOK DESCRIPTION
*HONORABLE MENTION WINNER NEW YORK BOOK FESTIVAL 2014
It's not just the house that's haunted.
Harmony Wolcott has lived her entire life on the fringe, wishing more often than not that she could end it all. After a failed suicide attempt heightens her visibility in the Child Protective Services system, she has no choice but to hide the details about the home life she's run from.
Adam, Harmony's formerly homeless boyfriend, has learned to fend for himself. Despite a past he's reluctant to talk about, Adam has risen above his circumstances and is trying to get Harmony to do the same.
Only loving someone so damaged isn't easy.
A recurring nightmare chips away at Harmony's facade of normalcy, reminding her of a time hidden so deep in her memory that it blurs the line between dream and reality. Convinced the nightmares are an otherworldly attempt at telling her something, Harmony employs the help of a spirit board and her best friend, Brea, to uncover a secret she's kept, even from herself.
Brea, who is trying to piece together the mystery of why her father walked out on their family fourteen years earlier, knows it's something to do with Harmony's mother and a night no one is willing to talk about.
A tragic discovery threatens to unravel Harmony's patched together life, dragging both Brea and Adam down with her and proving, with devastating consequences, that sometimes the past is better left buried.
