Description
Fifteen-year-old Juliana can't imagine a place more different from her old hom in California than Blackthorn, England - a damp, gray artist's colony filled with ancient home and residents who seem to know everyone else's business. But when she is befriended by the handsome young man next door, Juliana begins to think living in Blackthorn may not be so bad after all.
Just as her family is settling in, their new life is shaken by a grisly murder. Juliana is compelled to investigate the crime - only to find that it echoes long - buried secrets from her own mysterious past. Can Juliana put all the clues together before the killer strikes again?
