This is book 1 of the Rumpelstiltskin retelling. It is one of my favorite duologies that I have read and listened to multiple times! Even the bad guys have their loveable moments, which is infuriating 😅 It is dark and twisty, but keeps a stream of light to keep you hoping the good guys will come out on top.
Graphic: Child death, Torture, and Murder
Moderate: Confinement, Death, Hate crime, Slavery, Blood, Kidnapping, and Grief
