THE RESISTANCE STARTS HERE. No one speaks of the grace year. It s forbidden. 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. 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. But I don t feel powerful. I don t feel magical. 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. They must rid themselves of their dangerous magic before returning purified and ready to marry - if they re lucky. It is forbidden to speak of the grace year, but even so every girl knows that the coming year will change them - if they survive it...
