Violet Yorke
Published by Bloodhound Books
An orphaned child heiress who sees ghosts is intent on solving the mystery of her past—even if no one wants her to . . .
Little Violet Yorke has been able to communicate with the dead for as long as she can remember, but no one believes her.
Not her grandmother Olivia, who has taken care of the girl since her parents were killed. Not her Aunt Nanette or Uncle Bertie. And not even her lovely godfather Hugo Hewitt, the trustee of her vast fortune.
Everyone dismisses the child’s claims until the night her bedroom catches fire.
Violet is sent overseas, but rebelliously decides to return to Manhattan two years later—aboard the Titanic. Rescued from the sinking wreckage by an apparition, she finally arrives home—to her family’s shock. Now, despite her grandmother’s plans for her, Violet is determined to uncover the secret of what really happened to her parents, and lay the ghosts who follow her to rest . . .
Being a poor little rich girl in 1912 isn’t all it’s cracked up to be, in this delightfully dark and supernatural historical novel from the acclaimed author of A Good Man.
