Description: I did an evil thing to be put in here, and I'm going to have to do an evil thing to get out.' They call them wayward girls. Loose girls. Girls who grew up too fast. And they're sent to Wellwood House in St. Augustine, Florida, where unwed mothers are hidden by their families to give birth in secret and then put their babies up for adoption. Fifteen-year-old Fern arrives at the home in the sweltering summer of 1970, pregnant, terrified and alone. There, she meets a dozen other girls in the same predicament. Rose, a hippie who insists she's going to keep her baby and escape to a commune. Zinnia, a budding musician who plans to marry her baby's father. And Holly, barely fourteen, mute, and pregnant by no-one-knows-who. Every moment of their waking day is strictly controlled by adults who claim to know what's best for them. Until Fern meets a librarian who gives her an occult book about witchcraft - and suddenly power is in the hands of the girls for the first time in their lives. But power is never given freely. There's always a price to be paid... and it is usually paid in blood. 'A genuinely haunting and moving tale. I couldn't put it down' PAUL TREMBLAY 'A phenomenal read for witches everywhere' CARISSA ORLANDO Brand new See pictures for condition
