The Peculiar Garden of Harriet Hunt — Chelsea Iversen

A young woman channels the magic of the lush, fantastical plants that adorn her crumbling estate in The Peculiar Garden of Harriet Hunt, a darkly enchanting novel for fans of The Magician's Daughter and Emily Wilde's Encyclopaedia of Faeries. ​

Since her father's disappearance, Harriet Hunt has been completely alone. Her only company is the garden she cares for meticulously -- a wild place full of twisting ivy, thorny roses, and more magic and miracles than bees buzzing. But being alone as a woman in the world means she is vulnerable, and when suspicion for her father's disappearance falls on her, she marries to protect herself. But her new husband might be worse than her father, and she soon realizes she's integral to a dark plot created by the men around her. To free herself and discover the truth, she must learn to channel the power of her strange, magical garden.
