Aster, the protector
Violet, the favourite
Tansy, the medic
Mallow, the fighter
Clementine, the catalyst
Sold as children and branded with cursed markings. Trapped in a life they would never have chosen.
When Aster's sister Clementine accidentally kills a man, the girls risk a harrowing journey to find freedom, justice, and revenge in a country that wants them to have none of those things. Pursued by powerful forces, both living and dead, their only hope lies in a bedtime story passed from one girl to another, a story that only the youngest or most desperate would ever believe.
It's going to take more than luck for them all to survive.

Charlotte Davis is a recent graduate of The New School's Writing for Children MFA program and is currently working as an editorial assistant at Bloomsbury USA Children's Books. She grew up in Kansas City, which was once the Wild West but today is mostly just fro-yo shops. She now lives in a little apartment in Brooklyn.
Charlotte says: 'I didn't want to tell a story about racism, necessarily - there's plenty of that on the news - but a story about a black girl and her sister finding freedom? Young women of all types getting into good trouble? Underdogs coming together to stand up against the rich and powerful? That sounded like exactly what the doctor ordered.'
