About this title

Synopsis

The Once Upon a Time series continues with this unforgettable retelling of the fairy tale of Snow White.

The Duchess Jessica’s childhood began with the tragedy of her mother’s death. Her father, heartbroken at the loss of his beloved wife, cannot bear to raise the child. Largely ignored, Jessica spends the first eleven years of her life running free on the family estate, cared for only by the servants.

But her independence ends when her father decides to remarry. At first her new stepmother just seems overly strict. But as Jessica grows into a beautiful young woman, it becomes clear that her stepmother is also wildly—and murderously—jealous of her.

Determined to escape, Jessica flees to London under the name of Snow and falls in love with an odd band of outcasts who accept her into their makeshift family. But when her stepmother appears in the city, repentant and seeking her forgiveness, Jessica will have to decide whom to trust...with her life.

About the Author

Tracy Lynn is a pseudonym. Liz Braswell is a real person. After the sort of introverted childhood you would expect from a writer, Liz earned a degree in Egyptology at Brown University and then promptly spent the next ten years producing video games. Finally she caved in to fate and wrote Snow, her first novel, followed by the Nine Lives of Chloe King series under her real name, because by then the assassins hunting her were all dead. Liz lives in Brooklyn with her husband, two children, and the occasional luna moth.
