Amazon.com description: Product Description: Lucyâs Chantress magic will make her the most powerfulâand most huntedâgirl in England.
âSing, and the darkness will find you.â This warning has haunted fifteen-year-old Lucy ever since she was eight and shipwrecked on a lonely island. Lucyâs guardian, Norrie, has lots of rules, but the most important is that Lucy must never sing. Not ever. Now it is 1667, Lucy is fifteen, and on All Hallowsâ Eve, Lucy hears a tantalizing melody on the wind. She canât help but singâand she is swept into darkness.
When she awakes in England, Lucy hears powerful men discussing Chantressesâwomen who can sing magic into the world. They are hunting her, but she escapes and finds sanctuary with the Invisible College, an organization plotting to overthrow the nefarious Lord Protector. The only person powerful enough to bring about his downfall is a Chantress. And Lucy is the last one in England.
Lucy struggles to master the song-spells and harness her power, but the Lord Protector is moving quickly. And her feelings for Nat, an Invisible College apprentice and scientist who deeply distrusts her magic, only add to her confusionâ¦
Time is running out, and the fate of England hangs in the balance in this entrancing novel that is atmospheric and lyrical, dangerous and romantic.
