An instant New York Times bestseller—from the award-winning author of the vGraceling Realm series—about adventure, grief, storytelling, and finding yourself in a world of seemingly infinite choices.
Jane has lived a mostly ordinary life, raised by her recently deceased aunt Magnolia, whom she counted on to turn life into an adventure. Without Aunt Magnolia, Jane is lost. So she's easily swept away when a glamorous, capricious, and wealthy acquaintance from years ago asks Jane to accompany her to a gala at the extravagant island mansion called Tu Reviens.
Jane remembers her aunt telling her: "If anyone ever invites to you to Tu Reviens, promise me that you'll go." What Jane doesn't know is that the house will offer her five choices that could ultimately determine the course of her life.
One choice leads Jane into a heist mystery. Another takes her into a spy thriller. She finds herself in a gothic horror story, a space opera, and an extraordinary fantasy realm. She might fall in love, she might lose her life, she might come face-to-face with herself. Every choice comes with a price. But together, all the choices will lead her to the truth.

Industry Reviews
***An instant New York Times bestseller***
***An IndieNext Top Ten Pick***
"[A] defiantly weird, genre-obliterating book - it all but rewires your brain as you read it. . . . [Cashore is] a vivid, inclusive writer, and everything serves an empowering subtext: Don't let anyone tell you who you're supposed to be, and don't let anyone tell you what a novel is supposed to be, either."
-The New York Times Book Review
"[U]nlike anything I've read-mysterious, precise, and possessed of a pure, clear mood that stays intact even through the genre shifts. It's a wild gift for readers who like books that take them to unexpected places, by unexplored avenues, reminding us of the thrillingly infinite possibilities of story."
