It's a rollicking life, always thieving, always on the run--until the ragtag Crowns infiltrate an abandoned cathedral in the city of Odierne and decide to set down roots. It's all part of the bold new plan hatched by the Crowns' fearless leader, Gnat: one of their very own will pose as an apprentice to the local baker, relieving Master Griselde of bread and coin to fill the bellies and line the pockets of all the Crowns. But no sooner is Duck apprenticed to the kindly Griselde than Duck's allegiances start to blur. Who is she really--a Crown or an apprentice baker? And who does she want to be? Meanwhile, high above the streets of Odierne, on the roof of the unfinished cathedral, an old and ugly gargoyle grows weary of waiting to fulfill his own destiny--to watch and protect. Told in alternating viewpoints, this exquisite novel evokesa timeless tale of love, self-discovery, and what it means to be rescued''-- $c Provided by publisher. 655 7 $a Novels. $2 lcgft 650 1 $a Love $v Fiction. 650 1 $a Gargoyles $v Fiction. 650 1 $a Bakers and bakeries $v Fiction. 650 1 $a Apprentices $v Fiction. 775 08 $i Reproduction of (manifestation): 775 08 $a Eagar, Lindsay. $t Patron thief of bread $d Somerville, Massachusetts : Candlewick Press, 2022 $z 9781536204681 941 $a 4 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20240509011923.0 952 $l S1PD771 $d 20240503011410.0 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20240502010453.0 952 $l CMPE792 $d 20240417024014.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=9A7FB842FC8011EE9ABF7B513DECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
