But, the trajectories described all feel organic and realistic. Annaleigh is such a tough cookie - but one that’s infinitely compassionate and patient. The book is like a stormy November night.Īnnaleigh. Along the way she encounters gods, ghosts, and things that go bump in the night.
The villagers believe that the family is cursed.Īmongst the loss and fear, Annaleigh - one of the middle daughters - is working to solve the mystery of her sisters’ deaths … and, hopefully, save herself from the same horrible fate. The daughters are slowly being killed off. However, there’s a bigger problem at hand.
Like the fairy tale, the story is about a Lord with twelve daughters who are wearing through their shoes at an alarming rate. The story takes place in an Edwardian-like world, somewhere in that mid-Industrial period - where there are lighthouses with kerosene lanterns alongside horse-drawn carriages. House of Salt and Sorrows is a retelling of the Twelve Dancing Princesses tale - with a horror twist and supernatural flare.
