The broken edge of the world Cover Image Book

The broken edge of the world / Alena Bruzas.

Bruzas, Alena, (author.).

Summary:

"Sylvie has taken a summer job at a remote and alluring prairie preserve in the middle of the Great Plains. It's a much-needed escape--from her sadness, from her cruelly distant father, and maybe even from herself: She longs to be free of the intrusive, obsessive thoughts that are her constant burden. Soon, she finds herself drawn to a stunning shepherd boy and can't stop herself from going to him at night, even though she's been warned to keep away. During the day, though, she begins to develop a friendship with another boy, a strange-looking and strangely gentle coworker named Jack . . . and gradually to uncover the mysteries of this place that feels more like home than anyplace has before it. But those mysteries include a powerful curse, and when she uncovers the truth of it, she becomes recklessly determined to break it--to free the one trapped in its spell. She fails to consider the possibility that her actions could break much more than just the curse, and that some burdens demand to be borne"-- Provided by publisher.
