A jaw-dropping middle-grade adventure about a secret hunt and a secret hero.
Ottilie Colter is the first girl ever to join the secretive, boys-only Narroway Hunt and shes determined that she wont be the last.
The Hunt trains children to kill ruthless monsters known as dredretches, but now it's under threat. Dredretches have invaded Fort Fiory, and no-one is safe especially not the girls who live there, but arent allowed to fight.
Ottilie must convince the Hunt to train the girls but with the dredretches getting worse, talk of witchcraft on the rise, and a mysterious hooded figure in the Narroway itself, her time is running out
The second novel in a thrilling feminist trilogy about friendship, monsters and having the courage to be a rebel.
"The split focus . . . maintains a sense of forward progress while Ottilie uncovers answers for questions posed in the first book and allows complex characterization to shine. . . . Exceptionally fun; readers will clamor for the trilogy's conclusion." --Kirkus Reviews
