Gavin tells Delilah that he is hers - completely - but everyone in this House disagrees with him. After seven years of isolation at a boarding school on the East Coast, Delilah Blue returns to her small Kansas town, where little has changed. Her parents are still conservative and indifferent to everything, her bedroom looks the same as the day she left, and outcast Gavin Timothy still looks like he crawled out of his dark and crumpled drawings. This hits Delilah in an instant. Gavin has always lived in a strange house: an old building on the outskirts, surrounded by many trees, in the place where the city surrenders its rights to the bush. The house irresistibly attracts Delilah, and it’s not for nothing that there is a high fence around it, and Gavin urges Delilah to be careful. And all the inhuman things that live there with him will not stop at harming her, just to drive her away.
