Leena didn’t believe in monsters until she saw Weavingshaw. The Saint of Silence trades coins for every sordid divulgence uttered to him. The darker the secret, the higher the price. Leena has a secret, one that has haunted her since she was seventeen—she can see the dead. When her brother falls ill, she knows what she must do: seek the Saint. But Leena’s secret is more valuable to him that she could have imagined. To save her brother, she must make a deal with him to find the ghost he’s been searching for. All paths lead to Weavingshaw, a cursed estate on the moors. As Leena grows closer to the Saint, and is plunged into his world of danger, deceit, and desire, she learns that he is hiding his own secrets—ones that have the power to destroy them all. Three years ago, Leena Al-Sayer awoke with a terrible power. She can see the dead. Since then, she has hidden herself away from the world, knowing that if she ever reveals her curse she will be locked up in an asylum. When her beloved brother, Rami, falls fatally ill, Leena is faced with a terrible choice: Let him die or buy the expensive medicine that will save his life by bartering the only valuable thing she has—her secret. The Saint of Silence, a ruthless merchant who trades in confessions and is shrouded in unearthly rumors of cruelty and power, accepts her bargain, for a deadly price. Leena must find the ghost of Percival Avon, the last lord of Weavingshaw—or lose her freedom to the Saint forever. As Leena’s search takes her and the Saint to Weavingshaw, she finds the estate and the surrounding moors to be living things—hungry for blood and sacrifice. Fighting against Weavingshaw’s might, Leena must also fight her growing pull toward the enigmatic Saint himself, whose connection to Percival Avon remains a mystery. As the house begins to entomb them, time is running out on their desperate hunt for answers. For Leena has come to see that here in Weavingshaw, the dead are not hushed—and some secrets are better left buried with them.

Weavingshaw

En esta oscura fantasía gótica con romance, los secretos son la moneda de cambio y los muertos no descansan Hace tres años, Leena Al-Sayer despertó con un terrible poder: es capaz de ver a los muertos. Desde entonces, se ha ocultado del mundo, a sabiendas de que, si su maldición sale a la luz, acabará encerrada en un manicomio. Cuando su querido hermano, Rami, enferma de gravedad, ella se enfrenta a una terrible disyuntiva: dejarlo morir o conseguir el carísimo medicamento que le salvará la vida a cambio de lo único valioso que posee: su secreto. El Santo del Silencio, un despiadado y magnético mercader que comercia con confesiones y al que envuelven rumores sobrenaturales sobre su crueldad y poder, le ofrece un trato a un precio letal. Leena deberá encontrar al fantasma de Percival Avon, el último dueño de Weavingshaw, o entregar su libertad al Santo para siempre. La búsqueda de Leena la conduce, junto al Santo, hasta Weavingshaw, donde descubre que la finca y los páramos circundantes están vivos, ávidos de sangre y sacrificios. Mientras se enfrenta al poder de ese lugar, también debe resistirse a la creciente atracción que siente por el enigmático Santo, cuya conexión con Percival Avon continúa siendo un misterio. A medida que la casa comienza a sepultarlos, se les agota el tiempo de que disponen para su desesperada búsqueda de respuestas. Porque Leena ha llegado a comprender que, en Weavingshaw, los muertos no guardan silencio, y que es mejor que algunos secretos sigan enterrados con ellos.
