Everybody knows Cate Cahill and her sisters are eccentric. Too pretty, too reclusive, and far too educated for their own good. But the truth is even worse: they're witches. And if their secret is discovered by the priests of the Brotherhood, it would mean an asylum, a prison ship - or an early grave.
Before her mother died, Cate promised to protect her sisters. But with only six months left to choose between marriage and the Sisterhood, she might not be able to keep her word . . . especially after she finds her mother's diary, uncovering a secret that could spell her family's destruction. Desperate to find alternatives to their fate, Cate starts scouring banned books and questioning rebellious new friends, all while juggling tea parties, shocking marriage proposals, and a forbidden romance with the completely unsuitable Finn Belastra.
If what her mother wrote is true, the Cahill girls aren't safe. Not from the Brotherhood, the Sisterhood - not even from each other.
Jessica Spotswood (www.jessicaspotswood.com) lives in Washington, DC, with her playwright husband and a cuddly cat named Monkey. She's never happier than when she's immersed in a good story, and swoony kissing scenes are her favorite.
Reviews
"A tale so captivating you don't want it to end."—Andrea Robertson, New York Times bestselling author of the Nightshade series“Spotswood’s debut novel is enchanting and addicting. . . . Will capture any reader’s imagination.”—VOYA (starred review)
"An intriguing story of witchcraft, family responsibility, and unrequited love."—Booklist
"...the fate of the Cahill sisters inspires genuine dread by the time the cliffhanger ending arrives."—Publishers Weekly
"Intriguing . . . a heady dose of forbidden love."—BCCB
“Spotswood is spot-on not only in her vision of this nightmarish alternate society, but also in her smooth melding of historical and (slightly) gothic romance with the strong spice of suspense. . . . Humor and a sly wit reminiscent of the best Regency romances accompany a potent love triangle that will charm readers.”—School Library Journal
