When he is struck by the new plague ravaging the land and stealing its victims’ memories, she turns to Tamsin for help. Meanwhile, Wren, who is also 17, has spent her entire life concealing her identity as a source in order to care for her magic-hating, chronically ill father. Five years earlier, now-17-year-old witch Tamsin used dark magic in a moment of desperation and was cursed and banished from the Coven as a result. The latter is considered dark magic because the amount of power available is exponentially greater than a human body could produce, as is the corresponding environmental fallout. In this rich, nuanced fantasy world, witches can either draw power from themselves, from sources-humans who are magical conduits-or from the earth. A village girl and a cursed witch become unlikely allies on a quest to find the source of a devastating magical plague.
