One of Julia Eccleshare’s Stand-out Children’s Book of the Year 2012
Best-selling Maggie Stiefvater is mesmerising in this gripping and touching tale of the mysterious and the supernatural.
Blue doesn’t have the clairvoyant skills of her mother and her cronies, but she does have some special powers. One year, sitting with her mother as she watches the soon-to-be-dead walk past she sees one boy. Gansy. Who exactly is he and why does he appeal to Blue so much when he is one of the boys from the exclusive private school she so despises? Can Blue keep Gansy safe?
