There were no surprises in Gatlin County.

We were pretty much the epicenter of the middle of nowhere.

At least, that's what I thought.

Turns out, I couldn't have been more wrong.

There was a curse.

There was a girl.

And in the end, there was a grave.

In this book, Lena Duchannes is unlike anyone the small Southern town of Gatlin has ever seen, and she's struggling to conceal her power and a curse that has haunted her family for generations. The book tells of overgrown gardens, murky swamps and crumbling graveyards of the forgotten South, and a secret that cannot stay hidden forever.

The book also tells of Ethan Wate, who has been counting the months until he can escape from Gatlin. In the book, he is haunted by dreams of a beautiful girl he has never met. When Lena moves into the town's oldest and most infamous plantation, Ethan is inexplicably drawn to her and determined to uncover the connection between them.

In a town with no surprises, one secret could change everything. The book's powerful tale takes readers to the discovery of this secret, and more.
