Eithne is just a young elf maiden living in a postapocalyptic world called Raashan. Years ago, the gods partook in the Heavenly War and destroyed each other. This left Raashan in a state of chaos on a dangerous downward spiral. Eithne, along with the ever-noble captain of the guard, Darian, embark on a journey to find an ancient artifact that could possibly be the answer that Raashan is looking for . . . But things don’t really go as planned, in the sense of not at all. The journey takes unexpected turns, and they pick up some new friends, who bear a responsibility that none are sure they are ready to accept.

Longlisted for the Center for Fiction Debut Novel prize, this fableistic, "beautifully crafted, poetic" debut novel about a sister trying to hold back her brother from the edge of the abyss is for readers of Jesmyn Ward and Tommy Orange (The New York Times Book Review). In the tourist town of Ciudad de Tres Hermanas, in the aftermath of their mother's passing, two siblings spend a final weekend together in their childhood home. Seeing her brother, Rafa, careening toward a place of no return, Rufina devises a bet: if they can make enough money performing for privileged tourists in the plaza over the course of the weekend to afford a plane ticket out, Rafa must commit to living. If not, Rufina will make her peace with Rafa's own plan for the future, however terrifying it may be. As the siblings reckon with generational and ancestral trauma, set against the indignities of present-day prejudice, other strange hauntings begin to stalk these pages: their mother's ghost kicks her heels against the walls; Rufina's vanished child creeps into her arms at night; and above all this, watching over the siblings, a genderless, flea-bitten angel remains hell-bent on saving what can be saved.
