Thornewood: Veronica - Thornewood

Veronica Darling is a regular girl. She's got normal friends, normal parents and an average life, and in a few months she'll be off to college to find out what the world has to offer beyond the sleepy little mountain town of Thornewood. But when a life-changing event reveals the birthright her parents desperately tried to keep hidden, Veronica begins to learn that Thornewood is not the picturesque haven it appears to be. Frightening things are hiding in the shadows, and every uncovered truth just raises more questions.

In just a few months she'll move away to begin a new life and she'll be safe. Far away from him and Thornewood. A violent destiny awaits him and he plans to face it alone. But tragedy strikes and Veronica is thrown headfirst into his blood-drenched world of secrets and betrayal. Oliver soon discovers that he may actually be the only one that can keep her alive.
