ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

Alix E. Harrow's Starling House tells the story of Opal, a high-school dropout from the struggling town of Eden, Kentucky. She takes a housekeeping job at the mysterious Starling House to protect her brother, Jasper. The house has long been the subject of whispered stories.

As Opal works at Starling House, she confronts Arthur Starling, the brooding and enigmatic owner. He is burdened by his family's legacy as Wardens, protectors against creatures from another world. As Opal and Arthur work together, they try to unravel the mysteries of the house. They also grapple with their growing feelings for each other. The narrative explores themes of duty, choice, and the weight of history. The question of whether the characters can defy predetermined paths and shape their own destinies lingers throughout the book.
