Step into Starling House, if you dare . . .Alix E. Harrow reimagines Beauty and the Beast in this gorgeously modern Gothic fantasy, perfect for fans of V. E. Schwab and Naomi Novik.

This edition includes a bonus short story that reaches beyond the house's gnarly, tangled gates.

Opal is a lot of things - orphan, high-school dropout, full-time cynic. Most of all, she's determined to find a better life for her younger brother. One that gets them both out of Eden, a town renowned for bad luck. So when Opal gets the chance to earn a good wage at Starling House, Eden's very own haunted mansion, she can't resist.

Her new workplace is uncanny and full of secrets - just like Arthur, its brooding heir. It also feels strangely, dangerously, like something Opal never had: a home. As sinister forces converge on Eden, Opal realizes she might finally have found a reason to stick around. But now she'll have to fight for it . . .

This is a romantic and spellbindingGothic fairytale from Hugo, Nebula and Locus Award-shortlisted Alix E. Harrow.
