‘I’ll be killed for telling this story. It’s been seen. I’ve been warned. But I’m telling it anyway . . . ’ -- "A lush and brilliantly imagined tale, OBSCURA is a love letter to the outsider seeking home.”—Emily Habeck, author of Shark Heart PRE-ORDER THE GENRE-BENDING AND EPIC TALE STEEPED IN FOLKLORE, REBELLION AND MAGIC, FROM EXCITING NEW DEBUT AUTHOR, RAELLE TUCKER. --Obscura is a dazzling Mediterranean island, world-famous for its wild nightlife—sex, drugs, and cutting-edge dance music. While tourists flood the southern beaches, the rural North of the island is a no-man’s land of treacherous dirt roads and 'No Trespassing' signs. Those who dare to venture there rarely make it back. Because the mountains of the North aren’t just “cursed” as the locals believe—they are secretly home to a community of magical beings, who fled thousands of years of persecution to build a utopian society where they can live undisguised and unashamed of their hidden powers. It’s a place free of human interference—until Artemis, a girl with secrets of her own, saves a dying boy and smuggles him into her homeland. This act of rebellion sets off a reckoning that uncovers the lies, hypocrisies, and brutality on which her community was built. Now Artemis must choose: protect the world that made her, or burn it down to tell the truth.
