New Zealand author

Summary: Four years have passed since Rebecca ran away ... and life has become terrifying for Rebecca's remaining siblings as Elder Stephen seizes any chance to take revenge on them. Twelve-year-old Magdalene lives in fear that her strong-willed little sister, Zillah, will be his next target. The girls have run out of people who can protect them. To Zillah their path is clear but Magdalene is torn. How can she cause more hurt and shame for her parents? But equally, how can she face a life with no freedom to be herself? And ... without the elders suffocating rules that tell her how to live, who would Magdalene be?
