Dark Castle

DARK CASTLE is told from the point-of-view of a 12-year-old girl who from her earliest memory has been a prisoner in a black-walled castle surrounded on three sides by a remote, even darker forest. On one side, the darkest of all, is a forbidding sea where roaring waves crash against the sheer cliffs along the shore, even in the quiet times between horrendous storms. The sun never shines here, and strange creatures roam and creep and crawl from every corner and hole.
