Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

After surviving a brutal and senseless attack on the grounds of her university, Clara finds herself bonded in an inexplicable way with other survivors. They call themselves the "Knot," and together they discover some doors should not be opened and some promises should never be made. Ruthlessly pursued by a group of nihilistic devotees with keyhole tattoos on their palms, Clara and her sisters follow their wide-eyed gothic glamour queen, Angelique, the self-named Daughter of the Wormwood Star. Through a hospital filled with zombie cultists to a lighthouse overflowing with living shadows, they race to find the Jawbone Door, where they will discover the true horror of What Lies Beyond. "I'm here to tell you that you are not crazy. Come. Follow me. I have someone I would like you to meet. Come and meet your new family. Hail Satan! Hail Angelique! Hail the Daughter of the Wormwood Star!""I joined this cult!"-Jonathan Wood, author of Broken Hero"Daughter of the Wormwood Star is a book that grabs you immediately and drags you along to its wild and bloody conclusion. You don't want to look away for the whole ride . . . and you might not be able to."-Jennifer R. Donohue, author of Exit Ghost"I am not sure Daughter of the Wormwood Star is actually a novel-to read it is to enter a sustained and fevered dream that is not spun out of plot and characters, but instead of madness, bliss, and passion. No, this beautiful book is too weird and magical to be a novel: this book is a spell. Read it and be ensorcelled!"-Wendy N. Wagner, author of Girl in the Creek and The Deer Kings
