Well it's about this 17 year old girl named Alice Proserpine living pretty much all her life on the road with her mother; always trying to avoid the bad luck that's been biting at their heels, up until her grandmother who was a reclusive author of pitch-dark fairy tales passes away in her estate called the Hazel Wood, and Alice's bad luck is only just beginning when her Mother is taken by a figure who claims to be from the cruel supernatural world that her grandmother had her stories set in. The only lead that she has is from her Mother herself, a note that says:
"Stay away from the Hazel Wood."
It's a pretty great book so far, I'd definitely recommend it!
