Belladonna
ByPublisher Description
#1 New York Times bestselling author Adalyn Grace brings to life a highly romantic, Gothic-infused world of wealth, desire, and betrayal.
Orphaned as a baby, nineteen-year-old Signa has been raised by a string of guardians, each one more interested in her wealth than her well-being—and each has met an untimely end. Her remaining relatives are the elusive Hawthornes, an eccentric family living at Thorn Grove, an estate both glittering and gloomy. Its patriarch mourns his late wife through wild parties, while his son grapples for control of the family’s waning reputation, and his daughter suffers from a mysterious illness. But when their mother’s restless spirit appears claiming she was poisoned, Signa realizes that the family she depends on could be in grave danger and enlists the help of a surly stable boy to hunt down the killer.
However, Signa’s best chance of uncovering the murderer is an alliance with Death himself, a fascinating, dangerous shadow who has never been far from her side. Though he’s made her life a living hell, Death shows Signa that their growing connection may be more powerful—and more irresistible—than she ever dared imagine.

3.5
“A Murder mystery+ fantasy that doesn't do justice to either. I expected more world-building. Three stars for the mystery plot and the stunning cover ✨”
“An atmospheric gothic mystery that stays consistently engaging thanks to its brisk, fast-paced plot. While the idea of personifying Death initially gave me pause, the chemistry between the leads is surprisingly charming; I found myself feeling giddy and rooting for them as the story unfolded. It’s for anyone looking for a lush and supernatural story that keeps you hooked from start to finish.”
“I’ve really really enjoyed reading Belladonna, a mystery dripped in some fantasy. Delightfully edible.
I’m pretty good at predicting storylines and plots, and even with guessing most of them beforehand each one took me by surprise and I was even surprised by the culprit in the end!! Brilliant writing! I loved it! ❤️”
