About Rawblood
Fifteen-year-old Iris and her father are the last of the Villarca line, confined to their lonely Dartmoor mansion by a hereditary illness that has killed generations young. When Iris defies her father, leaves isolation and falls in love, the family’s true curse awakens. A bone-white woman comes in the night, and the secrets of Rawblood begin claiming lives once more.
