About Not Good for Maidens
Lou knows nothing of her family’s magical history or the deadly goblin market that once ensnared her aunt May. When goblins abduct her youngest aunt, Lou and May must return to its seductive maze of fruit, jewels and horrors, confront a long-buried curse and escape before the market claims Lou too.
