Hallowed Bones

Lucy Smoke

Book 1 of Sons of Salem

An orphaned eighteen-year-old witch arrives at a gothic Massachusetts college and discovers she may be the first female witch born to a dying, cursed coven in three centuries. Four mysterious heirs of the old Salem families are drawn to her, and as ghostly and monstrous threats close in, she must untangle her father's hidden past and the prophecy tied to her arrival. The story is told through multiple narrators and interspersed documents, blending dark academia, horror, and a developing why-choose romance. It ends on a cliffhanger, setting up further books in the series.
