When four girls, destined to be sacrificed to the faerie queen, Elphame, are thrown together, destiny is suddenly a thing of the past. Fugitives from an archaic tradition, Maggie and her new allies must run for their lives. Where will they go? How will they live? And what is the secret of the Discourt Knife?
