ABOUT THE BOOK

They are hunting those who shine . . .

Don’t be deceived by Northaven’s prettiness, by its white-wash houses and sea views. Many of its townsfolk are ruthless hunters. They revile those who have developed songlight, the ability to connect telepathically with others. Friends, neighbours and family will turn on each other in an instant.

Lark has lived in grave danger ever since her own songlight emerged. Then she encounters a young woman in peril, from a city far away, and an extraordinary bond is forged. But when power is everything, how will they survive?

‘Hard-hitting, imaginative, wide-ranging.’ GUARDIAN
‘A superb opening instalment of a dystopian YA trilogy.’ THE TIMES
