Description
Miranda, a misfit girl from the island’s most infamous family, and Phillips, an exiled teen criminal who hears the voices of the dead, must dodge everyone from federal agents to long-dead alchemists as they work to uncover the secrets of the new Lost Colony. The one thing they can’t dodge is each other.
Advance Praise
“This haunting, romantic mystery intrigues, chills, and captivates.”
–New York Times bestselling author Cynthia Leitich Smith
“Weird, wise and witty, Blackwood is great fun.”
–Marcus Sedgwick
“Miranda Blackwood’s battle against her own history is utterly modern — and utterly marvelous. She’s truly a heroine all readers can rally behind.”
- Micol Ostow, author of family and So Punk Rock
“With whip-smart, instantly likable characters and a gothic small-town setting, Bond weaves a dark and gorgeous tapestry from America’s oldest mystery.”
- Scott Westerfeld, New York Times bestselling author of the Leviathan series
“A deft and clever debut! Bond takes some reliably great elements — a family curse, the mark of Cain, the old and endlessly fascinating mystery of the Roanoke Colony — and makes them into something delightfully, surprisingly new. How does she do that? I suspect witchcraft.”
- Karen Joy Fowler, New York Times bestselling author of The Jane Austen Book Club
