Description

After murdering her abusive husband, Aarvi flees to a distant country with nothing but a suitcase, a scar, and a name she’ll never speak again. Broke and desperate, she stumbles upon an abandoned gothic castle offering free lodging in exchange for caretaking.

But Black Hollow is not empty.

Behind its thirteen doors are twelve cursed spirits — twisted, vengeful, and bound to an ancient magic. The thirteenth? A forgotten ghost named Elian. Beautiful, sorrowful, and different from the others.

As darkness awakens and forbidden rooms open, Aarvi discovers that love itself was the root of the curse. And to save Elian from the prison of his mother’s making, she’ll have to make the ultimate sacrifice:
To stay.
To suffer.
To break… beautifully.

A gothic tale of love and death, sacrifice and sorrow — where ghosts remember, and roses bloom from ruin.
