Young Adult Contemporary
Gabry lives a quiet life. As safe a life as is possible in
a town trapped between a forest and the ocean, in a world
teeming with the dead, who constantly hunger for those
still living. She’s content on her side of the Barrier,
happy to let her friends dream of the Dark City up the
coast while she watches from the top of her lighthouse.
But there are threats the Barrier cannot hold back.
Threats like the secrets Gabry’s mother thought she left
behind when she escaped from the Sisterhood and the Forest
of Hands and Teeth. Like the cult of religious zealots who
worship the dead. Like the stranger from the forest who
seems to know Gabry. And suddenly, everything is changing.
One reckless moment, and half of Gabry’s generation is
dead, the other half imprisoned. Now Gabry only knows one
thing: she must face the forest of her mother’s past in
order to save herself and the one she loves.
