HTML:<p><strong>"A lushly written, dream-like modern gothic with as many dark turns and twists as the Montebianco family tree has branches. Welcome to the family." – Paul Tremblay, bestselling author of Survivor Song</strong></p> <p>After a DNA test reveals that Alberta "Bert" Monte is the sole heir of a wealthy noble family in the Italian Alps, she leaves New York to visit the family estate: Montebianco Castle, a centuries-old compound isolated in the mountains. What appeared to be a fairy tale inheritance, however, soon turns into a nightmare as Bert begins to uncover the dark legacy of her family: the truth about the abandoned village at the base of the castle; the whispers of stolen children; and the rumors of a legendary monster in the mountains. As Bert unravels the truth, she learns that her true inheritance lies not in a noble title or ancestral treasures, but in her very genes, and now she must choose between preserving a secret centuries in the keeping or abandoning it forever.</p> <p><strong>"Vivid and uncanny...makes the most of Trussoni's signature blend of science, myth, and mystery."</strong> <strong>—Deborah Harkness, bestselling author of A Discovery of Witches</strong></p> <p><strong>"Inventive and entertaining." — People</strong></p> <p><strong>"A Gothic Extravaganza."</strong> <strong>—Kirkus</strong></p>.
