![]() ![]() The underlying mystery of the entire novel is that young girls are disappearing on the isle. This scene can be found on pages 151-152. It is not sexual, but this still might be triggering to some readers. The most triggering scene I would like to point out is that a female character is physically assaulted. As an example, the old ballad that depicts the two clans’ history is one where a husband and wife (from opposing clans) quarrel and then kill each other, which initially sparks the unbalance of the isle. Violence: there is a simmering level-or feeling-of violence throughout this story, as one clan on the isle is of a threatening and raiding nature to the other, who then kills in retaliation. Last time I counted, there were 4 curse words total. ![]() ![]() Please be aware that there will be *** SLIGHT SPOILERS*** in this content guide (although I have done my best to keep it minimal!). ![]()
