Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

When his formidable grandmother, Lady Margaret Matthews, dies under mysterious circumstances, seventeen-year-old Robert "Bobby" Matthews inherits not only a vast fortune but the mantle of power over a sprawling dynasty. Thrust into a world of whispered alliances and razor-edged smiles, Bobby must navigate a web of deceit where every cousin, uncle, and aunt harbors ambition-and loyalty is only a mask. In the suffocating shadows of Mourningford Hall, a labyrinth of twisting corridors and shifting rooms, Bobby finds a single point of light: Sophie, the girl he never expected to see again. Her love offers him hope... and perhaps salvation. But the Matthews curse runs deep. Beneath the ancient stones of Mourningford lies a rot three centuries in the making, now clawing its way back to the surface. For Bobby and Sophie, survival will demand more than love. It will demand sacrifice. It will demand truth. And it will change them-forever. How far would you go for love? What would you sacrifice for the truth? Prepare to descend into a gothic fantasy unlike anything you've experienced before: an ancient dynasty, a family rotten to the core, a dark secret buried for three hundred years... about to rise again. Once you set foot on a dark and crooked path, there is only one direction to travel. And how far down you go... is up to you...
