Amanda Foody

Dear Reader,

DAUGHTER OF THE BURNING CITY is set in the legendary Gomorrah Festival, where you might stumble across a wicked delight or an unspeakable horror on the same path; a carnival where history, magic, and darkness are all eternally intertwined. Here, an illusionist must unravel a devastating and impossible mystery...before everyone she loves disappears.

This is a story of empowerment and outsiders, of a girl who is much like other girls, of a family bound together by love rather than blood. Perhaps you will see yourself in these characters. But be careful...you may set out to unravel their mystery, but not all will survive to the end.
