Little Sister’s Inn has everything Lucy West is looking for. Quiet, solitude, and an escape from her suffocating reality. With her parents’ tragic deaths, their thumbs have finally been lifted, and Lucy—free for the first time in her life—wants nothing more than to be alone with her thoughts and figure out who she really is.

Except the inn appears to breathe. An entity that shifts in the corner of her eye. That invades her mind. Warps her thoughts. Or perhaps it’s the proprietor, Mina, who is the puppet master and Lucy her willing puppet? The longer Lucy stays on the property, the less she feels like herself. The more the inn bleeds into her veins. The more tantalizing Mina and the company she keeps becomes.

Torn between being the good, obedient woman who should run back to her safe, unfulfilling life and this thing slowly being torn asunder to show her exactly who she is, Lucy must make a decision — escape or give herself to the monsters who dwell in the shadows.
