Poisoned
Seventeen years ago, poisonous mists settled over the lowlands, rendering ninety percent of the land uninhabitable and killing more than half the population. Most people blame the catastrophe on reckless industrialization or on the fey, but some curse Snow White, the princess born poisoned and held responsible for the disaster.
Uniquely able to survive the toxic woods without a gas mask, Snow White has devoted her life to studying the poison and searching for a cure, venturing where no one else can follow.
As her research draws her deeper into the woods and their secrets, she finds that nothing is as it seems, and that the mists conceal far more than disease. When she saves the life of a man who should never have been spared, she unleashes an evil more horrifying and destructive than the poison itself.
A dark, steampunk-tinged reimagining of the Snow White fairy tale that blends fantasy, dystopia, and romance into a short, atmospheric series opener for new-adult readers.
