Twelve-year-old Elissa has been raised in seclusion as a devotee of the Mother Goddess. She is a special child, a blessed child, a child who can sing miracles into being. Her voice can heal wounds, halt landslides, cure hungerβand even end wars.
But there are those who would use her gift for darker things. And when Elissa finds herself the farthest from home sheβs ever beenβalong with her vain and jealous music tutor, Lucioβshe will have to develop the judgment to decide who wants to use her song to healβ¦ and who wants to use her song to hurt.
In this astonishing debutβperfect for music loversβCatherine Bakewell presents not only a wholly unique musical magic system, but a sumptuous baroque world filled with soaring basilicas, gilded palaces, dazzling food, and snow-piled wildernesses. It is a world both beautiful and treacherous, with a fiercely determined girl blazing brightly at its center. Can a lone voice change the world?
