“Dark and decadent, with the haunting allure of a true gothic tale, My Darling Dreadful Thing is a sensation that horrifies as acutely as it delights. Johanna Van Veen is a force to be reckoned with and will stain your thoughts a brilliant shade of crimson.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u2014 Rachel Gillig, New York Times bestselling author of One Dark Window\u00a0<\/p>\n

Spirits are drawn to salt, be it blood or tears. <\/p>\n

Roos Beckman has a spirit companion only she can see. Ruth\u2014strange, corpse-like, and dead for centuries\u2014is the light of Roos’ life. That is, until the wealthy young widow Agnes Knoop visits one of Roos’ backroom seances, and the two strike up a connection.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Soon, Roos is whisked away to the crumbling estate Agnes inherited upon the death of her husband, where an ill woman haunts the halls, strange smells drift through the air at night, and mysterious stone statues reside in the family chapel. Something dreadful festers in the manor, but still, the attraction between Roos and Agnes is undeniable.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Then, someone is murdered.<\/p>\n

Poor, alone, and with a history of ‘hysterics’, Roos is the obvious culprit. With her sanity and innocence in question, she’ll have to prove who\u2014or what\u2014is at fault or lose everything she holds dear.<\/p>\n

“A Sapphic s\u00e9ance of preternatural proportions,\u00a0My Darling Dreadful Thing\u00a0summons a stunning new literary voice to be reckoned with. Johanna van Veen reaches beyond the veil to conjure up a gothic shocker like no other.” \u2014\u00a0Clay McLeod Chapman, author of\u00a0What Kind of Mother\u00a0and\u00a0Ghost Eaters<\/p>\n
