The Rose that Devours

When Elias finds his sister cradling their mother's severed head, he believes it is an act of madness. But a cryptic warning from his dying father and a forced communion with a strange "rose water" reveals a truth far more terrifying. His family does not suffer from insanity; they are the chosen caretakers of a cosmic entity that feeds on blood. They are the Shearwielders, and the harvest has just begun. In a house of secrets and whispers, Elias must confront an inheritance written in blood and bloom.
