Publisher's Summary

I always thought that hauntings began with houses. They don't, of course.
It's people, isn't it? They begin with people.

If anyone knows what it is to be haunted, it's Daisy. The ghosts of her troubled past are ever present. Daisy has always done her best to shut the ghosts away. To shut away the wise creatures who used to whisper to her from the walls of the house. To live a normal life.

But now, something is humming in the house. Something dark, and unknown. And it's targeting Nina, her beloved sister. Daisy knows that something is up. And that the wise creatures, locked away for so long, are back. And this time, who knows what they want?

Critic Reviews

Deirdre Sullivan handles darkness in a way that instills addictive dread, but also, somehow, hope. (Sarah Maria Griffin, author of SPARE AND FOUND PARTS)

When it comes to writing YA fiction as beautiful, eerie and utterly chilling as WISE CREATURES, Deirdre Sullivan is in a league of her own (Louise O'Neill, author of ONLY EVER YOURS)
