(4) YA Twins Iris and Malina share a "gleam"--a magical ability to manipulate beauty--whose mythic origins and troubling endpoint they uncover when they pursue a mysterious white-haired woman who appears just as their mother suffers a deadly attack. Overlong but thickly textured with sensual descriptions, this folklore-based novel set in Montenegro builds to an agonizing choice over which sister will sacrifice for their mutual fate.
Reviewer: Anita L. Burkam
