This book is a continuation of the gripping saga by the American writer V. K. Andrews about the Dollangenger family. The first novel, “Flowers in the Attic,” based on real events, quickly became a bestseller and was twice adapted for film. Based on the novels “Petals on the Wind” and “Roses on the Ruins,” TV films were made in 2014–2015 with Heather Graham and Rose McIver.

Katy and Chris Dollangenger and their two sons lead an isolated life in a small town. The children have no idea what tragedy their parents had to endure in their youth. However, the past never gets tired of reminding itself. In the neighboring house, a mysterious woman in black moves in, and she manages to form a relationship with the younger brother, nine-year-old Bart. Her sinister butler, intending to use Bart to carry out a terrible revenge plan that he has been nurturing for years, reveals to the boy shameful secrets from the past…

The novel was also published under the title “Through the Thorns.”
