Between Flowers and Bones

In this second series installment, art is more than something to preserve: paintings open onto adventure, and the Restorationists’ Gifts are tied to their struggle against dark forces. Georgia, twelve, has long expected to carry on the family’s work, but Vincent’s arrival in the calling unsettles her sense of her own place. When he enters danger, the conflict between the Restorationists and the scheming Distortionists puts both family bonds and the group’s future under pressure. The story brings together fantastical art-world adventure, a young heroine’s doubts about her abilities, and questions of how different talents can contribute to a shared purpose.
