Menna van Praag is the author of THE SISTERS GRIMM (available now from HarperVoyager Books).

It's a dark and evocative tale of four seemingly unrelated young women united by a surreal, supernatural origin. Goldie, Liyanna, Scarlet, and Bea are all on the cusp of 18, each burdened by complicated family relationships, and all filled with a deep sense of longing for something they can\\u2019t quite remember.

As children, they found each other in Everwhere, an unchanging world outside of their world, of magic and perpetual night. Crossing over to Everwhere is a gift only the offspring of a single demonic father possess. But as teenagers, they are torn from each other, and forget their shadowy dreamworld.

Now, about to come of age, the powers that are their birthright flare into existence again, and the gates to Everwhere reopen to them. Their father\\u2019s other children prowl there, too, though \\u2014 sons-turned-solidiers, whose all-consuming mission is to kill their father\\u2019s powerful daughters.

Enemies and alliances form as these half-sisters seek to understand who they really are \\u2014 and face a choice to die in the light, or join their father\\u2019s eternal darkness.
