Erin Thornewood

Erin lives on the West Coast with her husband and two cantankerous cats. She loves sitting under cypress trees and strolling through quaint coastal graveyards and all that dreamy writer stuff. She’s been a finalist for the Next Generation Indie Book Awards in the YA category and looks forward to seeing what the future holds.

~ 2017 Next Generation Indie Book Awards Finalist ~

Society girls like 16-year-old Clara do not study electrobiology. They do not go to gambling houses with strange young men. They most certainly do not light would-be immortals on fire.

Clara is not a typical society girl, and when her father is discovered murdered and quite literally heartless, she finds herself doing these very things in order to track his killer. The sinister mystery goes much deeper, however, and Clara realizes she might have to give up more than she ever dreamed.

She might have to give up her heart.
