"Loretta Chefchaouni’s beautifully rendered prose seeps into your very bones and stays there long after the last page. An aching look into the hardships of daughter-mother relationships and the bonds that hold us together and tear us apart.” —Sandra Proudman, author of Salvación

BLURB REVEAL PART 2 “At turns grim and whimsical, this is a fairytale of our times, filled with grisly dangers, feminist rage, and steadfast female friendship—and a lovely, gentle romance to wrap it all up.” —Intisar Khanani, author of the The Sunbolt Chronicles and Thorn
