Thirteen-year-old Kyra has grown up in an isolated polygamous community without questioning her father's three wives and her twenty brothers and sisters. Or at least without questioning them much—if you don't count her secret visits to the Mobile Library on Wheels to read forbidden books, or her meetings with the boy she hopes to choose for herself instead of having a man chosen for her. But when the Prophet decrees that Kyra must marry her 60-year-old uncle—who already has six wives—Kyra must make a desperate choice in the face of violence and her own fears of losing her family.

What a wonderful (and disturbing) story. It was so well written and narrated. I usually listen to books as I drive to and from work and errands and while doing chores. I kept finding myself sitting still, mesmerized, instead of folding laundry...hiding in the closet from my family...pulling over to parking lots at key points in the story to concentrate...and cheer on the young heroine!

Michael Buckley, L.J. Ganser, and the Sisters Grimm never disappoint! We listen to these stories as a family and are always on the edge of our seats.
