Hazelthorn

Evander has lived like a ghost in the forgotten corners of Hazelthorn Manor. He can't leave. He can't venture into the gardens. And most of all, he can't be alone with Laurie, the boy who tried to kill him seven years ago. At least, not until his guardian is murdered and Evander inherits Hazelthorn. Then, Laurie might be the only one who can help him find the culprit. But as the manor's secrets come to light —like moss bleeding through the walls or poisonous fungi sprouting beneath the floorboards— Evander begins to understand what he has truly inherited… …before the garden claims its price.
