A Great and Terrible Beauty (The Gemma Doyle Trilogy)

A Great and Terrible Beauty (The Gemma Doyle Trilogy)

The first book in the critically acclaimedÂ New York Times, USA Today, andÂ Publishers WeeklyÂ bestselling Gemma Doyle trilogy, the exhilarating and haunting sagaÂ from the author of The Diviners series andÂ Going Bovine.

Itâ€™s 1895, and after the suicide of her mother, 16-year-old Gemma Doyle is shipped off from the life she knows in India to Spence, a proper boarding school in England. Lonely, guilt-ridden, and prone to visions of the future that have an uncomfortable habit of coming true, Gemmaâ€™s reception there is a chilly one.

To make things worse, sheâ€™s been followed by a mysterious young Indian man, a man sent to watch her. But why? What is her destiny? And what will her entanglement with Spenceâ€™s most powerful girlsâ€”and their foray into the spiritual worldâ€”lead to?

â€œA delicious, elegant gothic.â€â€”PW, StarredÂ

â€œShivery with both passion and terror.â€â€”Kirkus ReviewsÂ
