Publisher's Summary

Celebrate the 40th anniversary of the enduring gothic masterpiece Flowers in the Attic - the unforgettable forbidden love story that earned V.C. Andrews a fiercely devoted fan base and became an international cult classic.

At the top of the stairs there are four secrets hidden - blond, innocent, and fighting for their lives....

They were a perfect and beautiful family - until a heartbreaking tragedy shattered their happiness. Now, for the sake of an inheritance that will ensure their future, the children must be hidden away out of sight, as if they never existed. They are kept in the attic of their grandmother’s labyrinthine mansion, isolated and alone. As the visits from their seemingly unconcerned mother slowly dwindle, the four children grow ever closer and depend upon one another to survive both this cramped world and their cruel grandmother. A suspenseful and thrilling tale of family, greed, murder, and forbidden love, Flowers in the Attic is the unputdownable first novel of the epic Dollanganger family saga.

The Dollanganger series includes: Flowers in the Attic, Petals in the Wind, If There Be Thorns, Seeds of Yesterday, Garden of Shadows, Beneath the Attic, and Out of the Attic

The audiobook for the Book 2 - Petals on the Wind

There's no audiobook for Petals on the Wind - which is the second book in this series. I hope they create one soon. I would like to listen to the entire series.

Disturbing

Warning, do not read the forward! Unless you want to know all the main details and many spoilers of the story you’re about to listen to!
This book is well written, but very creepy and downright disturbing on many levels.

Just like I remembered.

I could not stop listening. So beautifully read the story that I read when it first came out as a teenager brought back every memory.
