No One Leaves the Manor is a deliciously twisted, fast-paced YA horror, where debutante dreams become bloody nightmares—perfect for fans of House of Hollow and Their Vicious Games.

It's 1921, and Mrs. Caroline Reginald Kane, the last surviving descendant of a family of oil barons, has invited four young debutantes to visit her at Greystone Manor. There, they'll compete for the ultimate prize: to become heir to her unspeakably vast fortune.

But only one girl can win.

And the manor is watching.

Dorothea is a thief, and the best liar in the American Northeast. Her mother vanished at Greystone years ago, and she's determined to find out why—so long as no one uncovers her secrets first.

Vaughn isn't crazy. She was born for this life—and she won't let anyone come between her and the fortune she deserves.

Birdie doesn't know why she's been invited, but she believes everything happens for a reason... and that reason just might be divine.

Elspeth is called "pretty as a peach, dim as a doorknob." But she sees things that the others can't: whispering birds, shifting doors, and a language that should never be spoken.

And there's something else hidden behind these walls. Something sinister.

It doesn't plan to let them leave alive.
