THE BOOK OF KINDLY DEATHS
By Eldritch Black
WHAT WOULD YOU DO IF THE MONSTERS IN A BOOK BECAME REAL?
When twelve-year old Eliza Winter finds a secret room in her missing
grandfather’s sprawling, Gothic house, her safe, sheltered life is blown
apart. Inside, below a stained glass window where moonlight shines no
matter the time of day, sits The Book of Kindly Deaths.
In defiance of her controlling mother, who has always forbidden her to
read anything strange or imaginary, Eliza takes the book. As night sets
in, Eliza reads one haunting story after another. And the further she
journeys inside the book, the more the boundaries between our world and a
shadowy land of monsters and forbidden places begin to blur.
When the strange, crooked man from the book arrives on the doorstep
claiming to be a rare book collector and demanding entry into the house,
Eliza’s world is turned upside down. To escape him she must dive all
the way into the spine-tingling world of The Book of Kindly Deaths to save her grandfather—and write an end to the nightmare she's caught inside.
