Description

From New York Times bestselling and Hugo Award-winning author T. Kingfisher comes a dark retelling of the Brothers Grimm's Goose Girl, rife with secrets, murder, and forbidden magic. Perfect for fans of Naomi Novik, Alix E. Harrow and Nettle & Bone.

Cordelia knows her mother is unusual. Their house doesn't have any doors between rooms there are no secrets in this house! Cordelia isn't allowed to have a single friend. Unless you count Falada, her mother's beautiful white horse. The only time Cordelia feels truly free is on her daily rides with him. But more than a few quirks set her mother apart. Other parents can't force their daughters to be silent and motionless obedient for hours or days on end. Other mothers aren't...sorcerers.

Author Bio

T. Kingfisher is the vaguely absurd pen name author Ursula Vernon uses when writing for adults. As Kingfisher, she has won the Hugo, Nebula, Locus and Dragon Awards, including the Hugo for Best Novel for her book Nettle & Bone. When she is not writing, she is probably out in the garden, trying to make eye contact with butterflies.
