From celebrated children's author Cerrie Burnell comes a new, wonderfully inclusive, magical tale set in the whimsical world of Wilder than Midnight.

Long ago, on a winter's eve, two sisters walked into a wolf-wild wood but only one returned. . .

The Faraway Wood is full of twisting thorns and sharp teeth. Stirring with myth and music. It's the perfect place for bandits, thieves and secrets to hide.

Until a prince goes missing.

Lilac is a strong girl, happy with her found family, yet searching for her sister.
Clover is a determined girl, eager to find what's been lost to her, though scared to leave her village.
Hester is a smart girl, one step ahead of trouble, and ready for adventure.

Together, they will unite the realm.

'Pure fairytale magic with so many twists' - Jasbinder Bilan, author of Asha and the Spirit Bird

'[a] book about love and friendship and driving your own destiny in the face of prejudice. But mostly, it's a story of girls, glorious girls, in all their feisty, feminine brilliance' - Nizrana Farook, author of The Girl Who Stole an Elephant
