Grace Year
What's it about
Ever wondered what you would do if society believed your very existence was a dangerous poison? In Garner County, girls are banished on their sixteenth birthday to release their supposed "magic" into the wild, a brutal ordeal known as the Grace Year. But not all of them return. This isn't just a story of survival; it's a chilling look at the power of female rage and the lies girls are told to turn them against each other. You'll follow Tierney James as she uncovers the dark truths behind the tradition and discovers that the real threat isn't some imagined magic, but the men who fear it and the women who uphold their deadly system.
