They must rid themselves of their dangerous magic before returning purified and ready to marry - if they're lucky. Tierney James lives in an isolated village where girls are banished at sixteen to the northern forest to brave the wilderness - and each other - for a year. That's why we're banished for our sixteenth year, to release our magic into the wild before we're allowed to return to civilisation. We're told we have the power to lure grown men from their beds, make boys lose their minds, and drive the wives mad with jealousy. 'An incredibly important and empowering read' Natasha Ngan, author of Girls of Paper and FireĪ New York Times bestselling dark speculative feminist thriller, perfect for fans of The Power and The Handmaid's Tale.
