Publisher Description
Amy Ewing, author of The Jewel, gives us a glimpse of the twisted cruelty which pervades the House of the Stone in this shocking and heart-wrenching digital novella. When Raven is bought at the Auction, she knows immediately that things will not go well. And when she arrives at the Countess's palace, Raven quickly discovers that the Countess is much less interested in having a baby than experimenting with Raven's mind and body. Raven can only hope for an escape … and to see Violet again, all the while reminding herself that she is Raven Stirling, and she will survive. The Handmaid's Tale meets The Other Boleyn Girl in a world where brutality and beauty collide. This is a must for anyone desperately awaiting the sequel to The Jewel.
Customer Reviews
Really good
Great for fans of the lone city trilogy and especially Raven. This book was a really interesting and intense peek into what Violet’s best friend endured during her time at the House of the Stone. My only complaint was that it ended too soon! I understand why it ended when it ended but (SPOILER ALERT) it would’ve been cool to read about how Raven felt when the Countess starts trying to take away her memory etc.
Disappointing
The other books Amy Ewing wrote were really exciting colourful and captivating but this book seemed somewhat flat.
