Summary
“I grew up in the foster care system. I never knew my mother—never had a real family, a place to call home. I belonged to nothing and nothing belonged to me."
A child raised in darkness learns to fear the light.
Until she was seventeen, Lillian lived in fear of the faceless figure that cast such an oppressive shadow over her life. Even as an adult, she’s unsettled by the sight of an open doorway to a dark room—forever wary of what might be lurking on the threshold.
When the nightmares she’s been plagued by for years disappear with the birth of her daughter, Lilly fears she passed them on to her. Until, after the death of her best friend, the visions begin to reappear. Suddenly, she’s thrust into the darkness once again; only now she isn’t the only one there. For the first time in her life, Lilly must reckon with what family really means to her, and whether holding on too tightly is any better than letting go.
