Lili Wilkinson: Deep Is the Fen, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Get lost in the newest, fantasy from the author of A Hunger of Thorns, on a beguiling journey behind the closed doors of a sinister secret society. Featuring a steamy enemies-to-lovers romance and a fight for the witching world that will getyour heart racing.

Merry doesn't need a happily-ever-after. Her life in the charming, idyllic town of Candlecott is perfect just the way it is, with her doting father and her two best friends, Teddy and Sol to keep her company. Nothing ever happens in Candlecott, which is exactly how Merry likes it. But it's her, Teddy and Sol's last summer together, and despite Merry's best efforts, change is creeping in.

When Merry discovers that Teddy has joined the Toadmen, a local mens-only society best known for their backwards thinking and odd traditions, she's determined to save her friend from himself. Even if it means partnering up with the person she hates most: her arch enemy and Teddy's fellow Toad, Caraway Boswell, a snobby know-it-all who refuses to let anyone see his true self. Turns out, Caraway needs Merry's help, too—though for what, he won't exactly say.

Together, Caraway and Merry travel from Candlecott to the mysterious Deeping Fen, where one of the Toadmen's most ancient and revered rituals is being held. Yet when Merry discovers that the Toadmen have been keeping dangerous and sinister secrets, she must decide how far she is really willing to go to protect her friends—and, possibly, the world—from their twisted magic.
