About this listen

The New York Times bestselling author of All the Stars and Teeth brings to life a highly romantic, Gothic-infused world of wealth, desire, and betrayal.

Nineteen-year-old Signa Farrow, orphaned as a baby, has been raised by a string of guardians, each more interested in her wealth than her well-being—and each has met an untimely end. Her last remaining relatives are the Hawthornes, an eccentric family living at the glittering and gloomy estate of Thorn Grove. Thorn Grove’s patriarch, Elijah, mourns his late wife, Lillian, through wild parties and drink, while eldest son Percy grapples for control of the family’s waning reputation and daughter Blythe suffers from the same mysterious illness that killed her mother. And when Lillian’s spirit confronts Signa and claims she was poisoned, Signa realizes that Blythe could be next to die.

Signa’s best chance of uncovering the culprit and solving Lillian’s murder is an alliance with Death himself—the very man she hates most. And Death, that fascinating, dangerous shadow who has never been far from her side, shows her that their connection may be more powerful than she ever dared imagine.

Critic reviews

“A deliciously deadly gothic romance. Full of poisonous deeds, spectacular secrets, and dark mysteries. Belladonna is a hauntingly atmospheric read, with an absolutely fantastic ending that will leave readers begging for more.”—Stephanie Garber, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Once Upon a Broken Heart
“Decadently atmospheric. This gothic romance is filled with desire, betrayal, and of course, Death.”—Kerri Maniscalco, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Kingdom of the Wicked series
“Darkly twisted and deliciously gothic, Belladonna is the kind of wicked fairytale I've loved for most of my life. Grace's world is vivid and sexy. The romance and the relationships are pitch perfect, and I fully expect readers to fall headfirst into Signa's morally complex world, just as I did."—Renée Ahdieh, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Wrath and the Dawn and Flame in the Mist

Dear Listener,

What drew me to create Death as a mysterious, alluring character?
"No one knows what happens when we die—an afterlife, reincarnation, spirits, nothingness. The only thing we know for certain is that death is universal. I had a lot of fun personifying Death, digging into the power and terror that so many feel around him, and marrying that to the quiet, peaceful side that can exist. Death is a man destined to watch all those around him die. His is the last face people see, and the one they often spend their living days terrified of. Exploring those elements and balancing his strength and vulnerability were my favorite parts of crafting his character." – Adalyn Grace, writer of Belladonna

Fantastic all around!

First, I’ll just say that listening to the audible version is definitely the right decision! The narrator is so great!
The story was not only a very interesting mystery but a love story too. It was unpredictable for the most part and played out very well, although, I have a few questions. I enjoyed this very much and couldn’t stop listening!!

Peak entertainment

Death, ghosts, a secret garden mixed with some bridgerton vibes. Loved every minute of it. The narrator was so good at different voices for the characters.

Seductively dark and moody.

A spellbinding story that settles into your bones. The narration couldn’t have been a better match for the writing. I was hooked, and eagerly await the sequel!
