Summary
Imagine an America very similar to our own. It's got
homework, best friends, and pistachio ice cream.
There are some differences. This America been shaped
dramatically by the magic, monsters, knowledge, and legends of
its peoples, those Indigenous and those not. Some of these
forces are charmingly everyday, like the ability to make an orb
of light appear or travel across the world through rings of
fungi. But other forces are less charming and should never see
the light of day.
Elatsoe lives in this slightly stranger America. She can
raise the ghosts of dead animals, a skill passed down through
generations of her Lipan Apache family. Her beloved cousin has
just been murdered, in a town that wants no prying eyes. But
she is going to do more than pry. The picture-perfect facade of
Willowbee masks gruesome secrets, and she will rely on her
wits, skills, and friends to tear off the mask and protect her
family.
Darcie Little Badger is an extraordinary debut talent in
the world...
