Neverfell's expressions are as varied and dynamic as those of the most skilled Facesmiths, except hers are entirely genuine. Into this dark and distrustful world comes Neverfell, a girl with no memory of her past and a face so terrifying to those around her that she must always wear a mask. Expressions must be learned, and only the famous Facesmiths can teach a person to express (or fake) joy, despair, or fear-at a steep price. On the surface, the people of Caverna seem ordinary, except for one thing: their faces are as blank as untouched snow. In the underground city of Caverna, the world's most skilled craftspeople toil in the darkness to create delicacies beyond compare-wines that remove memories, cheeses that make you hallucinate, and perfumes that convince you to trust the wearer, even as he slits your throat. ![]() ![]() An amnesiac girl explores an enchanting underground world filled with sinister secrets in this YA fantasy from the award-winning author of The Lie Tree. ![]()
