Produktbeschreibung
Anna, a Scavenger Girl auctioned to the highest bidder at the Seller's Stage as a surrogate, is purchased by one of the most influential families in Ashlund. Despite her efforts to appease them, tension grows when she cannot give them what they want most. As a slave whose life is in the hands of those with status, an arrangement is made - an agreement so unspeakable the consequence of discovery is worse than death for everyone involved, but it just might work. Freedom is found through servitude in a place girls like her rarely find: in the arms of a loving man. But when betrayal and suspicion overshadow hope and desire, secrets kept too long take a murderous turn to protect them. One night of desperation and tragedy seals their fate, forcing confessions to save the most innocent among them.

Autorenporträt
Inspired by great authors that tend to blur the lines of mainstream genres, Jennifer Arntson weaves together elements of fantasy fiction, romance and speculative fiction with undertones of mythology, dystopian culture, and the coming of age struggles of strong characters in unimaginable situations. As the curious observer of world cultures and social issues, Arntson creates a world everyone can relate to without conforming to "previously formulaic and sometimes predictable genres." Arntson lives in south Texas with her husband and two children, who support her compulsion to write.
