Synopsis:
Foolish love appears to be the Roux family birthright, which casts an ominous fate for its most recent progeny: twins Ava and Henry Lavender. Henry is mute for much of his young life, and Ava—in all other ways a normal girl—is born with the wings of a bird. At sixteen, sheltered Ava delves into her family’s past and ventures into the wider world, ill-prepared for what she might discover and naive to the twisted motives of others. Others like the pious Nathaniel Sorrows, who mistakes Ava for an angel and whose obsession with her grows until Ava’s quest and her family’s saga build to a dark crescendo.
