Her name was Rype. That wasn't really her name. It was what the strangers called her. She didn't remember her real name. She didn't remember anything at all."Rype was hiding in the hollow of a tree trunk when they found her. She was hungry, small, cold, alone. She did not speak their language, or understand their mannerisms. But she knew this: To survive, she would have to go with them.It is the 14th century, Norway, and Rype's entire village has been killed by the dreaded plague. By a miracle, Rype survives. In order to remain that way, though, she must embark on a sweeping adventure across Europe with an English son of a ship captain and a band of troubadours in search of a brighter future, and a new home.Expertly crafted, beautifully written, and completely unique, Diane Zahler has created a historically rich and stunning story of survival and hope in the face of a great sickness.
