Fifteen-year-old Juliana can't imagine a place more different from her old home in California than Blackthorn, England--a damp, gray artists' colony filled with ancient homes and residents who seem to know everyone else's business. But when she is befriended by the handsome young man next door, Juliana begins to think living in Blackthorn may not be so bad after all. Just as her family is settling in, their new life is shaken by a grisly murder.
