Lex Gracie never wanted to think about her family. Growing up in her parents' House of Horrors, she tried to escape her identity as Girl A - the girl who freed her siblings from the nightmare created by her father. Her past haunted her, but she managed to avoid it for years.

When her mother dies in prison and leaves the family home to Lex and her siblings, she can no longer ignore her past. Determined to turn the house into something positive with her sister Evie, Lex must confront the childhood they shared and the secrets they kept from each other.

What starts as a story of escape and survival transforms into a psychological drama about the complexities of sibling relationships. As Lex delves into the memories and bonds that tie them together, she uncovers the power of their shared past and the truth about who they have become.

For fans of Room and Sharp Objects, this immersive novel follows a young girl as she navigates the aftermath of captivity and grapples with the shadows that linger in her life.
