In this modern-day retelling of Grimm's fable, young heroines Hansel and Greta are all grown-up and worse off than a witch thrust in an oven. With wild unpredictability, this novel breaks the barriers of the original fairy tale with alarm bells ringing. Teenage Hansel and Greta have great plans to escape their hellish foster home where child exploitation is the norm. But Greta's unplanned pregnancy, and the evangelical wishes of her evil foster mom, threaten to derail them. Greta's past of magical Vegas memories unravel her as she is faced with one difficult choice after another. Escape with Hansel and Greta, if you can.
