A fantastical retelling of the Japanese myth of Izanami and Izanagi from the internationally bestselling author of Out.
On an island in the shape of a teardrop live two sisters. One is admired far and wide, the other lives in her shadow. One is the Oracle, the other is destined for the Underworld.
But what will happen when she returns to the island?
