The Murderess is a bone-chilling tale of crime and punishment with the dark beauty of a backwoods ballad. Set on the dirt-poor Aegean island of Skiathos, it is the story of Hadoula, an old woman living on the margins of society and at the outer limits of respectability. Hadoula knows about herbs and their hidden properties, and women come to her when they need help. She knows women’s secrets and she knows the misery of their lives. Then the terrible truth hits there’s nothing worse than being born a woman, and there’s something that she, Hadoula, can do about that.

When little Snowflower is left alone in the world, her only companions are a faithful dwarf and a very special chair—one that can travel anywhere and tell beautiful, enchanted tales. As Snowflower visits the palace of King Winwealth, the chair begins to spin its stories: rich, moral fables filled with kings, queens, fairies, and lessons about generosity, courage, and kindness.
