fate, as Jamaican-American Natasha meets and falls in love

deported. Each section of the novel is titled by the name of the
character who narrates the section, with several interspersed
sections narrated by a third-person narrator who is
presumably God.
Book 1 in the series
Sixteen-year-old Elizabeth Grey doesn't look dangerous. A
tiny, blonde, wisp of a girl shouldn't know how to poison a
wizard and make it look like an accident. Or take out ten
necromancers with a single sword and a bag of salt. Or kill a
man using only her thumb. But things are not always as they
appear. Elizabeth is one of the best witch hunters in Anglia
and a member of the king's elite guard, devoted to rooting out
witchcraft and bringing those who practise it to justice. And
in Anglia, the price of justice is high: death by burning.
The first book in an incredible new series set in a fantastical
medieval world.
