Audrina Adare lives in the shadow of a sister she never knew. Perfect, beloved, and long dead, her sister’s memory hovers over the family like a ghost. Audrina’s father insists she can never measure up, and every day she struggles to be “the good one,” desperate for the love she craves.
But upstairs in a locked room lies her sister’s untouched world: dolls, games, clothes, and the rocking chair where Audrina is told she can inherit her sister’s gifts, if she rocks long enough.
As she searches for truth inside a house drowning in secrets, Audrina begins to uncover betrayals that twist love into something suffocating and dangerous.
Innocence, obsession, and deceit entwine in this gothic tale of family darkness and forbidden knowledge.
