El Jardín de los Malditos

"What if, to unravel the mystery behind her mother's disappearance, Marlow Briggs has to fake a romance with one of the most powerful men she knows? Since fleeing the gilded halls of Evergarden for the gloomy canals of the Mire, Marlow Briggs has earned a reputation as the best curse-breaker in the city of Caraza. But no matter how many cases she solves, she remains haunted by the mystery of her mother's disappearance. When Adrius Falcrest, Marlow's old friend and scion of one of Caraza's wealthiest spell-weaving families, asks for her help to break a life-threatening curse, Marlow wants nothing to do with the boy who treated her with disdain a year ago. However, a new clue in her mother's case makes Marlow realize that the only way to get the answers she so desperately needs is to help Adrius and return to Evergarden society—even if that means faking a romance with him to avoid raising suspicion among the five conspiring families."
