Secrets. Lies. Super-bad choices. Witchcraft . . . A gripping mystery crossed with a pitch-dark tale of modern-day witchcraft.

IN OUR FAMILY, MAGIC RUNS DEEP, BUT SECRETS RUN DEEPER. Ivy's summer starts with a series of disturbing events - unnatural offerings appear on her doorstep and she's haunted by fragmented memories from her childhood. Soon she grapples with a dark secret that she's always known - but never faced - that there is more to her mother Dana than meets the eye . . . Dana's story starts the summer she turns sixteen, when with the help of her best friend and an ambitious older girl, she embarks on a major fling with the supernatural. As the trio's aspirations darken, things soon take a more sinister turn. Years after it began, Ivy and Dana's shared story will come down to a reckoning among a mother, a daughter and the dark forces they never should've messed with.

Reviews for Our Crooked Hearts

A truly masterful tale . . . immaculate prose, a parallel generational story for the ages, and chills when you least expect them. -- David Arnold, author of THE ELECTRIC KINGDOM A riveting story that grips you like a spell until you're too deep to emerge unscathed! -- Angeline Boulley, author of FIREKEEPER'S DAUGHTER Ruthlessly enticing . . . This book pulses with a bewitching darkness, and I loved it. -- Kat Ellis, author of HARROW LAKE
