Synopsis
In a polygamous cult in the desert, Kyra, not yet fourteen, sees being chosen to be the seventh wife of her uncle as just punishment for having read books and kissed a boy, in violation of Prophet Childs' teachings, and is torn between facing her fate and running away from all that she knows and loves., One of 20 children, 13-year-old Kyra lives with her father and three mothers on a polygamous compound that follows the word of the Prophet. Longing to experience the outside world, reading forbidden books, and having a crush is as daring as Kyra has been until she is put in a terrible situation. The Prophet declares that she has been chosen to be her aged uncle's seventh wife. Desperate to make her own way in life, Kyra must make the choice between her community, the way of life she's always known, and freedom. Will she be able to escape to the outside world, dooming her family to shame, or must she submit to the path chosen for her?
