“The gradual but compelling unraveling of this family mystery captivated me.” ―Naomi Hirahara, Edgar Award-winning author of Hiroshima Boy and Clark and Division

“This book is a true delight to the senses!” ―Keri Wilt, speaker, historian, and great-great-granddaughter of Frances Hodgson Burnett, author of The Secret Garden

A Modern Gothic Retelling of The Secret Garden.

Still grieving her mother’s death, American photographer Mari Lennox is sent to document Yanagi Inn, an old, dilapidated ryokan outside Kyoto, Japan. By day, Mari explores the inn and its grounds, taking striking photographs and uncovering layers of mystery shrouding the old resort―including an overgrown, secret garden on a forbidden island. At night, eerie weeping (which no one else seems to hear) keeps her awake.

Despite the warnings of the staff, Mari searches for the source of the ghostly sound―and discovers a devastating secret tying her family’s history to the inn, and its mysterious, forlorn garden.

For readers who enjoy The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett and The Haunting of Brynn Wilder: A Novel by Wendy Webb.
