A riveting speculative feminist dystopian thriller for readers of The Power, The Handmaid's Tale and The Hunger Games.
Kim Liggett, originally from the rural Midwest in the US, moved to
New York City to pursue a career in the arts. She's the author of
Blood and Salt, Heart of Ash, The Last Harvest (Bram Stoker Award
Winner), The Unfortunates, and The Grace Year.
Kim spends her free time studying tarot and scouring Manhattan for
rare vials of perfume and the perfect egg white cocktail.
Part coming-of-age tale, part adventure story; this is not a cry
against oppression - it's a bold, beautiful howl.
*Heat Magazine*
An incredibly important and empowering read
*Natasha Ngan, New York Times bestselling author of Girls of Paper
and Fire*
A crazy mash-up of Vox, The Hunger Games, Lord Of The Flies and The
Handmaid’s Tale.
*Daily Mail*
A must-read for fans of The Handmaid's Tale and The Power
*Bustle*
Harrowing and absolutely riveting, an insidious journey from reason
to madness that manages to completely refresh the concept of the
patriarchal dystopia, with a beautifully realised ending.
*Melissa Albert, New York Times bestselling author of THE HAZEL
WOOD*
Seethes with love and brutality, violence and hope. It is a
remarkable and timely story . . . Everyone should read this
book.
*Sabaa Tahir, #1 New York Times bestselling author of An Ember in
the Ashes*
Readers’ hearts will race and break right along with the brave,
capable Tierney’s. Chilling, poignant, haunting, and,
unfortunately, all too timely.
*Kirkus Starred Review*
A book for every woman who has ever screamed at the top of her
lungs and still felt like no one heard her. A book for every person
who has ever been made to feel small or less than. A book for all
of us who have been told to sit down and be silent, to grin and
bear. Tierney's captivating story reminded me that sometimes
existing is itself an act of bravery -- and this book's existence
is an act of courage that I'm very grateful for. Brutally smart,
devastatingly lyrical, and so capital i-Important, I want everyone
to read this book!
*Jasmine Warga, internationally bestselling author of My Heart and
Other Black Holes and Other Words for Home*
A visceral, darkly haunting fever dream of a novel and absolute
page-turner . . . Equal parts horror-laden fairytale, survival
story, romance and resistance manifesto. I couldn't stop
reading
*Libba Bray, New York Times bestselling author*
