Hallie's mom has a family friend named Aunt Marigold. They've been close since they were kids. Hallie has never met her. She's about to spend a week at her cottage in the tiny town of Larkspur - alone - while her parents take their first vacation in twelve years. The cottage is sweet. Aunt Marigold is sweet. The tea Aunt Marigold serves with every meal is sweet, too. So why is the wall behind the cottage taller than the house? Why does the kid across the road say no one stays here for long? Why does Aunt Marigold's hand feel cold even in August? And why did Mom whisper drink the tea, Hallie before she drove away - like it was a warning, or a promise, or both? Hallie has seven days to figure it out. Some aunts give you cookies. Aunt Marigold gives you tea.
