Some Places Heal You Some Break You Open Seventeen-year-old Alice is going back to Blakemore Academy for the summer. Again. It's meant to be a retreat for 'troubled teens', but the crumbling old manor won her over fast. It's home, or as close as Alice has ever known. At Blakemore she's got everything she ever needed: her books, her plays, a strange little circle of friends, and, of course, Bex and Dev, her brilliant, beautiful besties. Only this time, something's wrong at Blakemore. Students start disappearing, time doesn't work right, and Alice and her friends start to see flashes of lives they'd rather forget. As the attacks get worse and a student dies, Alice is running out of time to protect the people she loves. She doesn't realise that the past she's been avoiding might be the only thing that can stop it. Because there's a darkness buried in the walls of Blakemore... and that darkness feeds on pain. The new LGBTQIA+ horror novel from the author of The Manor Street Hauntings. Grissea also writes as Emma Barrett-Brown
