Cinder House

You think you know Cinderella’s story: the ball, the magical shoes, the handsome prince.

Ella is a haunting. Murdered at sixteen, her furious ghost is trapped in her father’s house, invisible to everyone except her stepmother and stepsisters.

Even when she discovers how to untether herself from her prison, there are limits. She cannot be seen or heard by the living people who surround her. Her family must never learn she is able to leave. And at the stroke of every midnight, she finds herself back on the staircase where she died.

Until, that is, she forges a wary friendship with a fairy charm-seller, and makes a bargain for three nights of almost-living freedom...
