Reporting from a city on the brink

Willie Grimmerly arrives hoping to report on Banshees, Ghosts, and Levens, the persecuted descendants of Fairy and Elven-folk. Instead, her pursuit of stories unfolds amid a city nearing war and a rebellion that has placed her brother on the front lines. Underground speakeasies become part of her reporting landscape as she gathers accounts of people caught in conflict. When an opportunity to publish a story about violence and control emerges, the question shifts from finding a story to deciding what truth-telling demands in a dangerous world. The book brings folklore and political upheaval together through a young reporter’s work and family ties.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in folklore and mythology woven into a fictional setting.
  • Readers who enjoy stories about journalism, rebellion, and the risks of publishing.
  • Readers drawn to narratives involving siblings and people facing persecution.

Book overview

All young Maiden Willie Grimmerly has ever wanted was to become a big-city reporter, recording the tales of Banshees, Ghosts, and Levens (the persecuted descendants of Fairy and Elven-folk). But when she arrives to a city on the brink of war, with a beloved brother on the front lines of a rebellion, Willie must navigate the city's underground speakeasies, chasing the shadow of her sibling and collecting stories of the lost and losing. When she finally gets her big break with a dark story about violence and control, Willie must decide if she's brave enough to publish in a world where spreading the truth is a deadly responsibility.
