When chronically ill Mercy Mar inherits her great-uncle's crumbling estate, she expects dust and debts - not a predatory family secret waiting in the walls. The house remembers her. The relatives watching her every move remember her. And somewhere beneath the floorboards, a monstrous lineage stirs, hungry for its firstborn heir.Trapped by winter storms and the suffocating expectations of the Mar family, Mercy must uncover the truth about the curse tied to the estate: a ritual crown, a history of stolen lives, and the creature controlling the bloodline from the shadows.The more Mercy resists, the tighter the house closes around her. And the more she learns, the clearer it becomes - her sickness is not a weakness. It's the one thing the monster did not expect.A chilling tale of inherited horror, family betrayal, and a woman forced to confront the curse, determined to remake her in its image.
