The Ground That Grows Roses
Description
More Singers have risen, and they're about to unleash chaos.
Denny has put her father to rest, solved the mystery of the screamers and become a national hero. On the surface, she is living a dream, but her problems are far from over. In order to end the screamer crisis, she and Verity will need to find more singers to help calm the restless dead, but so far none have been found.
Meanwhile, in downtown Hamilton, a traumatized teen named Tessa and Lorian, an out-of-luck musician, discover singing through a friend's death, but as they use their powers, they leave a trail of chaos and destruction behind them. In order to win them as allies, Denny will have to find a way to reach Tessa before she self-destructs under the weight of her past, but Denny is still struggling with demons of her own.

Person
When she was a small child, Elizabeth Hirst's school principal had to give her an award to get her to stop making books and focus on literally anything else. Her focus has improved since, expanding to punk rock, animation and the textile arts, but she still produces a disturbing number of books, such as The Face in the Marsh and Distant Early Warning, and short stories which have appeared in A Quiet Afternoon I and II and Halldark Holidays. She has been described as cheeky, highly intractable, exceedingly stubborn and as Canadian as saying sorry.
