Description

A teenage Edgar Allan Poe attempts to escape the allure of his Muse in this YA novel--"a darkly delicious tale that's sure to haunt readers forevermore" (Kerri Maniscalco, #1 New York Times-bestselling author)

Seventeen-year-old Edgar Poe counts down the days until he can escape his foster family--the wealthy Allans of Richmond, Virginia. He hungers for his upcoming life as a student at the prestigious new university, almost as much as he longs to marry his beloved Elmira Royster.

However, on the brink of his departure, all of Edgar's plans go awry when a macabre Muse named Lenore appears to him. Muses are frightful creatures that lead Artists down a path of ruin and disgrace, and no respectable person could possibly understand or accept them. But Lenore steps out of the shadows with one request: "Let them see me!"
