From New York Times bestselling author and TikTok sensation Celina Myers, a gothic tale of inherited shame, fractured sisterhood, and an ancient terror waiting past the treeline.Fourteen-year-old Esther Clandestine never asked to be exiled to the middle of nowhere. After her father gambles away the family fortune in London, she's dragged across an ocean to Bridgewick Falls, where a grand new house sits alone on a hill above one hundred acres of suffocating wilderness. The townsfolk whisper of a curse; her mother favors her obedient twin, Victoria; and Esther, restless and resentful, feels like a stranger in her own family.Until she feels the pull of the surrounding woods—an unseen chorus humming her name, calling her deeper into the dark. Her twin sister, Victoria, gentle and devout, feels only dread.Night after night, Esther is drawn into the trees—into chants, visions, and the promise of belonging to something ancient and ravenous. Victoria watches the sister she loves twist into someone unrecognizable, possessed by a force neither girl understands.Inside the towering house, something is stirring. And when Esther finds a five-pointed mirror that holds terrifying premonitions, as blackouts steal her memory and her body begins to change, Esther realizes the mirror isn't showing her a nightmare: It's showing her the truth.Every reflection is a tether. And something on the other side is pulling the string.
