Adults never speak of their birthdays. Asking their age is forbidden. Fierce creatures roam the night sky.
Lizzie has never given much thought to the origins of the magical barrier that protects her village until she follows the birthday party leading her grandmother to the forbidden tomb. And once there, trapped in the tomb, it is much too late to ask questions.
For readers interested in a dark fantasy inspired by Shirley Jackson's classic story "The Lottery".
