Tightrope Books
Fifteen-year-old Elsa Byrd is on the verge of becoming a woman in the summer of 1935. In a world run by men, it could be more of a curse than a blessing. Elsa's father enters the TB sanitarium and she's forced to live on her grandparents' farm. She stumbles upon a stranger hiding in the barn and decides not to tell a soul. When a dead girl is discovered floating in a dory, it quickly shifts from the kind of secret Elsa wants to hug close, to the kind she doesn't dare let out. Her mentor, Lavinia Twigg, joins the police investigation and Elsa is left teetering between silence and disclosure, trust and fear.

When Brannagh’s boyfriend, Nikki, disappears on a bird count in Northern Ontario, she reluctantly returns to her home town, Saint John, for a childhood reunion. Back in grade school, the members of the all-girls club "Tuatha-de-Dananns" vowed to "protect one another's self-a-steam, forever and ever amen."
As Brannagh struggles to solve the mystery behind Nikki’s vanishing, she begins to suspect that someone is taking the club's oath 'to protect one another' too far...even to the point of murder.
