Read a sample Read a sample
A compelling YA story with a magical realism twist about a girl whose pregnancy shocks everyone . . . most of all her
Quinn Cutler is sixteen, the daughter of a candidate for congress in Brooklyn, and a student at a private school in Park Slope. Sheâs also pregnant, a situation made infinitely more shocking by the fact that she has no memory of actually having sex. Scared and confused, Quinn struggles to piece together what might have happened: An unlikely accident while she and her boyfriend were fooling around? A rape that sheâs repressing from trauma? Before sheâs had any revelations, the situation becomes public, putting her most intimate life up for scrutiny and ridicule, and jeopardizing her fatherâs political career. Religious fanatics begin gathering at the Cutlersâ house, believing sheâs pregnant with the next Messiah. As things spiral out of control through a frenzy of brutal online gossip and rumor, the clues that Quinn uncovers reveal more about her childhood and her family than about the pregnancy itself. She starts to realize that much of her life is built on secrets and liesâstrange, possibly supernatural ones that her father is desperate to keep concealed. And uncovering the mysterious secrets is the only way sheâll learn the truth about her pregnancy, and the only way sheâll discover why, despite all evidence and logic, a deep down part of her believes the truth isnât an ugly one. Might she, in fact, be a virgin?
