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 Novic, 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.
