A brilliant puzzle of a book from the author of Chime and the Folk Keeper plunges us into the vulnerable psyche of one of the most memorable unreliable narrators narrators to grace the page in decades.
The Robber Girl has a good dagger. Its voice in her head is as sharp as its two edges, which taper down to a point. Today the Robber Girl and her dagger will ride with Gentleman Jack into the Indigo Heart to claim the gold that's rightfully his. But instead of gold, the Robber Girl finds what might be a home, and a family. But to fight is easier than to trust when you're a mystery even to yourself and you're torn between loyalty and love. The Robber Girl is at onece achingly real-wise to the nuances of trauma- and loaded with magic, action and intrigue.
