Three girls. Three fates. Three interwoven stories. Spanning a hundred years from the present to the future, three girls on the cusp of life search for truth and connection amid family dysfunction, climate change and the march of new technology in this exquisite verse novel from the award-winning author of Grace Notes.

Miri, an eighteen-year-old hopeful Jungian student, discovers she's pregnant in 2025.

Aleita, sixteen, shelters in the library, the one place free of jolts to her digital implant in 2125.

Interwoven between them stands Sylvie, spinning tapestries to save her life and the kingdom. Sylvie exists in the pages of a mysterious fairytale titled The Girl at the Threshold.

Miri, Aleita and Sylvie each need to make a choice in their search for the truth. All three are connected through time by heartbreak, a desperate need to save the environment and a search for family and community.

An expansive verse novel about the parallel journeys of three extraordinary girls carving out their own histories - and each other's.

Praise for Karen Comer's award-winning debut, Grace Notes:

'Perfect for any young reader who's ever felt left on the outside.' Books and Publishing

'A masterful debut!' Lorraine Marwood

'This beautiful story strikes the perfect tone.' Nicole Hayes

'A classic in the making.' Danielle Binks
