Synopsis:<\/strong>

In an isolated society, one girl makes a discovery that will change everything \u2014 and learns that a single stone, once set in motion, can bring down a mountain.<\/p>\n

Jena \u2014 strong, respected, reliable \u2014 is the leader of the line, a job every girl in the village dreams of. Watched over by the Mothers as one of the chosen seven, Jena's years spent denying herself food and wrapping her limbs have paid off. She is small enough to squeeze through the tunnels of the mountain and gather the harvest, risking her life with each mission. No work is more important. This has always been the way of things, even if it isn\u2019t easy. But as her suspicions mount and Jena begins to question the life she\u2019s always known, the cracks in her world become impossible to ignore. Thought-provoking and quietly complex, Meg McKinlay\u2019s novel unfolds into a harshly beautiful tale of belief, survival, and resilience stronger than stone.<\/p>\nGet the Book:<\/strong> Amazon<\/a>\r\n
