Description

A "tender and magical"* fairy-tale retelling

In shepherd boy Elrics tiny village, people think children like his younger sister, Wynn, are changelingsleft by fairies and doomed to curse all around them. As a baby, Wynn was born with developmental delays, and according to the rules, she was supposed to be abandoned in the woods.

Instead Elrics mother saved his sister and hid her away for eleven years. They live in secret and fear of being discovered, yet their home is full of love, laughter, and singing. Wynn and Elrics favorite song is about the Silver Gate, a beautiful fairy realm where all children are welcome.

But when their long-absent father returns to sell Wynn to the Lords castle as a maid, Elric realizes that folk songs and fantasies cant protect them from the outside world. They have to run away. Still Wynn believes theres only one place theyll ever be safe, and it lies beyond the Silver Gate.

The road to freedom is long and treacherous. If they have any hope for survival, Elric and Wynn must learn to depend on each other above everything elseand discover the magic that always reveals itself when it seems like all is lost.
