There are no strangers in the town of Near. These are the truths that Lexi has heard all her life. But when an actual stranger, a boy who seems to fade like smoke, appears outside her home on the moor at night, she knows that at least one of these sayings is no longer true. The next night, the children of Near start disappearing from their beds, and the mysterious boy falls under suspicion. As the hunt for the children intensifies, so does Lexi's need to know about the witch that just might be more than a bedtime story, about the wind that seems to speak through the walls at night, and about the history of this nameless boy. Part fairy tale, part love story, Victoria Schwab's debut novel is entirely original yet achingly familiar: a song you heard long ago, a whisper carried by the wind, and a dream you won't soon forget. 541 $d 20200610. 650 7 $a Paranormal fiction. 650 $a Villages $v Juvenile fiction. 650 1 $a Witches $v Juvenile fiction. 650 $a Interpersonal relations $v Juvenile fiction. 650 7 $a Young adult fiction. 655 7 $a Fantasy fiction. 941 $a 2 952 $l A2PD787 $d 20240524010133.0 952 $l KJPF566 $d 20200911011153.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=1905236CF3F411EA94B80B9F44ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
