Agnes and Honey have lived on a religious commune their whole lives. Being exposed to the outside world for the first time tests their friendship and forces them to confront the values of their old community and the adults around them. Skillfully told through the two perspectives of Agnes and Honey, this debut novel is a gripping read.
