Bookroo's summary

Orphaned and surrounded by death, nineteen-year-old Signa finds herself at Thorn Grove, a mansion of secrets and spectral whispers. As her relatives face mysterious threats, a ghostly warning reveals a sinister poisoning. With a stable boy's help, Signa must unravel the mystery, but her greatest ally is Death himself—a shadowy figure who has haunted her life. As danger looms, their unexpected bond may hold the key to saving her new family. Can Signa trust Death, or will their connection lead to her own demise?

From the publisher

1 MILLION COPIES SOLD IN THE SERIES The first book in the #1 New York Times bestselling series brings to life a gothic-infused world of wealth, desire, and betrayal, as a young woman confronts Death in this fantastical mystery full of ghosts, magic, and romance. Orphaned as a baby, nineteen-year-old Signa has been raised by a string of guardians, each one more interested in her wealth than her well-being–and each has met an untimely end. Her remaining relatives are the elusive Hawthornes, an eccentric family living at Thorn Grove, an estate both glittering and gloomy. Its patriarch mourns his late wife through wild parties, while his son grapples for control of the family’s waning reputation, and his daughter suffers from a mysterious illness. But when their mother’s restless spirit appears claiming she was poisoned, Signa realizes that the family she depends on could be in grave danger, and enlists the help of a surly stable boy to hunt down the killer. However, Signa’s best chance of uncovering the murderer is an alliance with Death himself, a fascinating, dangerous shadow who has never been far from her side. Though he’s made her life a living hell, Death shows Signa that their growing connection may be more powerful–and more irresistible–than she ever dared imagine.
