About The Last Heir to Blackwood Library

In post–World War I England, twenty-three-year-old Ivy Radcliffe unexpectedly inherits Blackwood Abbey and its extraordinary library on the Yorkshire moors. Drawn past the servants’ warnings to its strange books and hidden manuscript, she must unravel the abbey’s ghosts, curses and living secrets before the library steals her story—and her sense of self.
