Messing with the dead has grave consequences.
16-year-old Penny Boudreaux does her best to be a normal teenager. But normal teenagers don't work part-time at funeral homes or hang out in cemeteries, something even her friends mock her for. Between the stresses of school, work and toxic relationships, Penny could use a mentor, an older adult to give her guidance. Like a mother. But Penny's own mother died years ago, and nobody can return from the dead.
Right?
When Penny meets a handsome but mysterious boy named Stephen, she starts to experience strange things. Whispers in quiet rooms. Grotesque, humanoid figures nobody else can see. And multiple hints that something about Stephen is not quite right. Because Stephen has a connection to the dead Penny never could have imagined.
With Penny and Stephen's combined power, having her mother back seems like a goal that's actually within reach. But with dangerous and powerful forces working against them, Penny must make a crucial decision - one that could cost both she and Stephen their lives.
Equal parts spooky and sweet, Penny Dreadful is a young adult paranormal romance about love, loss and whether cheating death is really worth it in the end.
