Young Adult Fantasy
There are no secrets in Saintstone. From the second you're born, every achievement, every
failing, every significant moment are all immortalized on
your skin. There are honorable marks that let people know
you're trustworthy. And shameful tattoos that announce you
as a traitor. After her father dies, Leora finds solace in the fact that
his skin tells a wonderful story. That is, until she
glimpses a mark on the back of his neck . . . the symbol of
the worst crime a person can commit in Saintstone. Leora
knows it has to be a mistake, but before she can do anything
about it, the horrifying secret gets out, jeopardizing her
father's legacy . . . and Leora's life. In her startlingly prescient debut, Alice Broadway shines a
light on the dangerous lengths we go to make our world feel
orderly--even when the truth refuses to stay within the
lines. This rich, lyrical fantasy with echoes of Orwell is
unlike anything you've ever read, a tale guaranteed to get
under your skin . . .
