From the celebrated author of Big Fish comes an
imaginative, moving novel about two sisters, their dark
legacy, and the magical town that entwines them.
Helen and Rachel McCallister, who live in a town
called Roam, are as different as sisters can be: Helen,
older, bitter, and conniving; Rachel, beautiful, naïve—and
blind. When their parents die suddenly, Rachel has to rely
on Helen for everything, but Helen embraces her role in all
the wrong ways, convincing Rachel that the world is a dark
and dangerous place she couldn’t possibly survive on her own
. . . or so Helen believes, until Rachel makes a surprising
choice that turns both their worlds upside down. In this new
novel, Southern literary master Daniel Wallace returns to
the tradition of tall tales and folklore made memorable in
his bestselling novel Big Fish. Wildly inventive and
beautifully written, The Kings and Queens of Roam i s
a big-hearted tale of family and the ties that bind.
