A dark, queer YA fantasy that’s perfect for fans of the Three
Dark Crowns series and Wicked Saints. After Emanuela Ragno
kills the one person in Occhia who can create water, she must find a way to
save her city from dying of thirst.
Emanuela Ragno always gets what she wants. With her daring mind and socialite
schemes, she refuses to be the demure young lady everyone wants her to be. In
her most ambitious move yet, she’s about to marry Alessandro Morandi, her
childhood best friend and the heir to the wealthiest house in Occhia. Emanuela
doesn’t care that she and her groom are both gay, because she doesn’t want a
love match. She wants power, and through Ale, she’ll have it all.
But Emanuela has a secret that could shatter her plans. In the city of Occhia,
the only source of water is the watercrea, a mysterious being who uses magic to
make water from blood. When their first bruise-like omen appears on their skin,
all Occhians must surrender themselves to the watercrea to be drained of life.
Everyone throughout history has given themselves up for the greater good.
Everyone except Emanuela. She’s kept the tiny omen on her hip out of sight for
years.
When the watercrea exposes Emanuela during her wedding ceremony and takes her
to be sacrificed, Emanuela fights back…and kills her. Now Occhia has no one
to make their water and no idea how to get more. In a race against time,
Emanuela and Ale must travel through the mysterious, blood-red veil that
surrounds their city to uncover the secrets of the watercrea’s magic and find a
way to save their people-no matter what it takes.
“Perfect for fans of Holly
Black’s The Cruel Prince and Emily A. Duncan’s Wicked
Saints…a must-purchase for YA collections.”—School Library
Journal
“A fast-paced debut that reaches

About Mara:
Mara Fitzgerald writes YA fantasy about unlikable female
characters who ruin everything. She is a biologist by day and spends entirely
too much time looking at insects under a microscope. She was born near Disney
World and now lives near Graceland, which is almost as good. Beyond the Ruby
Veil is her debut novel.
