Description

A dark and clever fantasy novel by Angharad Walker. In a world ravaged by fantastical illnesses, sisters Payton and Ani have grown up in the hospital of King Jude's. Their lives are turned upside-down when Ani discovers an imprisoned boy who can turn everything he touches to gold. As they venture outside the hospital for the first time, the girls unravel a dark mystery that threatens to upend their understanding of the world. Walker's unique world-building and philosophical themes evoke the clever storytelling of Philip Pullman's His Dark Materials. With its gothic hospitals, sprawling cityscapes, and dark secrets lurking beneath the surface, this is a story that will slowly reveal its secrets, using tension as a lever to draw readers deep into its mysteries.
