Fantasy. Young Adult Fiction. Welcome to Glendoch! Hidden to most, this glacial world once crackled with alchemy. Now it waits for war�??divided and bound by strict rules. So when twelve-year-old Meylyne falls from a tree onto Glendoch's sickly prince, she must flee or face imprisonment in the Shadow-Cellars. The only way she may return home is with a cure for the prince's peculiar disease.

Mysteriously magnetic (or murderously vengeful, depending on whose side you're on), she is always one step ahead of them… (more)

Note: I received this from a Goodreads giveaway and this is my independent opinion.
