Wow, absolutely fabulous! Keep 'em coming!

Scarlet Benoit is a farm girl, but she wasn't always. She used to live in Paris, now she lives in rieux. One day her grandmother disappears, scarlet knows she didn't run off, but the police don't agree. She will stop at nothing to find her grandma.

This book was devoured in one and a half sittings. I tried to make it last, really, I did! It was just too good to stop reading. The imagery was on point, and the writing style as always had wonderful flow. Marissa Meyer is swiftly taking up the 2015 favorite author slot for me.
