Description
A deliciously dark gothic romance from New York Times bestselling author Romina Garber! Perfect for readers of MEXICAN GOTHIC by Silvia Moreno-Garcia.
I see his shadowy form taking shape. He could be a teen or in his early twenties; and yet, the starry galaxies of his eyes contain universes.
After a mysterious attack kills both of her parents, Estela Bralaga is forced to accept an invitation to live with an estranged aunt at their ancestral Spanish castle, la Sombra.
Beneath its gothic facade, la Sombra harbours a trove of family secrets, and Estela begins to suspect that the answer to her parents' deaths may be found in the twisting corridors of the castle.
When Estela crosses paths with a silver-eyed vampire called Sebastian, the pair soon realise they are bound by unknown forces, as well as an intense attraction, and must work together to discover the truth that lies at the dark heart of la Sombra.
'Deliciously atmospheric and darkly romantic, Castle of the Cursed was one of my favourite novels of the year. I absolutely loved it' Melissa Marr, New York Times bestselling author
'A brooding romance with a compelling, gothic setting' Kirkus Reviews
