Wrangled by Candice Wright

There was always something different about Calliope Hart.

She was an odd child, disliked and scorned—cursed like each of the Hart women that came before her.
When her abusive father is murdered, all fingers point at Calliope, not with sympathy but with blame.
She doesn’t fight it; anyplace is better than home, even a concrete cell wrapped in iron bars.
It isn’t until she’s gone that people realize that something strange is happening to their town.
See, Calliope isn’t cursed; she is the curse, and now, the once-prosperous land has withered and decayed in her absence.
By the time the odd child with the haunted eyes returns as a woman ready to embrace her villain era, the town is on the brink of collapse.
She’s a little older now, a little more twisted and far more powerful than before

After all, there was always something different about Calliope Hart
And it’s time to show everyone exactly what she’s capable of.
