channels Shirley Jackson." --Katherine Howe, New York Times bestselling
author of The Physick Book of Deliverance Dane, on Malice House

Girls, on Malice House
Now both hunter and prey, Haven travels far and wide to discover the
contours of her family curse and escape the worst of her late father's
creations. Constantly looking over her shoulder, she fears Uncle Arnold
the most. His irresistible whispers compel victims to commit horrifying
deeds, and he's hungry to use Haven's abilities to rewrite the world to
his liking.
Drawn to the desert scrublands and Hollywood mansions of California,
Haven discovers a string of murders that point directly to members of
her family. Given shelter by a mysterious benefactor, Haven and her
sister forge questionable allegiances, using some otherworldly creatures
to hunt down others. And when the trail of death ends at a studio from
the Golden Age of horror films, reality and fiction become the strangest
of bedfellows indeed.
