Chime by Franny Billingsley
Briony Larkin of Swampsea is full of secrets--some that are even secret from herself. But she must keep them all to herself or she's sure to go to the noose. Then her sister gets sick, a handsome boy arrives, and the swamp begins to be drained, prompting danger, supernatural and otherwise, to creep into her carefully curated life. Briony must harness her powers, her wits, and even her love to fight against these perils and save those closest to her, but can she do it all without facing trial for witchcraft or worse?
Exploring themes of love, self-hate, and lies, Chime pulls readers in with lush prose, several mysteries, and an enchanting main character.
