Book Synopsis

The inspiration behind Lifetime’s new miniseries event, Flowers in the Attic: The Origin.

Olivia dreamed of a sun-filled love, a happy life. Then she entered Foxworth Hall...

V.C. Andrews' thrilling new novel spins a tale of dreadful secrets and dark, forbidden passions—of the time before Flowers in the Attic began. Long before terror flowered in the attic, thin, spinsterish Olivia came to Virginia as Malcolm Foxworth's bride. At last, with her tall handsome husband, she would find the joy she had waited for, longed for. But in the gloomy mansion filled with hidden rooms and festering desires, a stain of jealous obsession begins to spread...an evil that will threaten her children, two lovely boys and one very special, beautiful girl. For within one innocent child, a shocking secret lives...a secret that will taint the proud Foxworth name, and haunt all their lives forever!

    I loved it. I finally understand how and why the grandmother Olivia came to be the way she was. I hated her in Flowers in the attic, but in Garden of Shadows I sympathize with her and can understand why she was so cold and hard like she was. I also understand how the second Corrine was like she was.

    FINALLY I understand why Olivia Foxworth was so cold and bitter! I have not read a book in over 29 yrs now. And I made it through this in less than 2 days. I couldn't stop reading😁 I am a bit disappointed that it did not show the perspective of Olivia during the Dolanganger children's stay at Foxworth hall. I recall in the film "flowers in the attic" there was moments that she was torn between wanting the children gone to having pity for them.
  • Fun read!
