Dreaming Darkly

Teen Gothic Mystery Novel

Perfect for fans of Madeleine Roux and Lisa Maxwell, this novel takes readers to the cold, creepy island of Darkhaven, where a girl with unexplained blackouts grapples with secrets from her dead mother''s past and a legacy of murders that have been committed by her family.

Family Secrets and Dark Past

Ivy Bloodgood''s mother is dead, and she should probably be sad about it. But she isn''t. Myra Bloodgood was a manipulative personality who never told the truth—about where she came from, who Ivy''s father was, or why they were living their lives on the run.

Arrival at Darkhaven

Now that Ivy has been sent to the family estate on Darkhaven, an island off the New England coast, she is forced to reckon with her mother''s past. Ivy can tell right away there are long-held family secrets buried within these walls, but when she wakes up from one of her nightmares covered in someone else''s blood, Ivy fears that whatever demons her mother battled while she was alive have come to roost in her own mind.

Seeking Help and Uncovering Truths

Scared that she can no longer trust what she sees, Ivy seeks the help of a boy who thinks her episodes are connected to the sordid history of Darkhaven—but what they don''t know might kill them both.
