Biographical note

<p>“Landman is known for her ferocious, affecting historical fiction … this is one of her best. Grim yet uplifting, this slim, tough book will grip its reader from first page to last” – <em>The Guardian</em></p> <p>"Brilliantly told … grabs you from the very outset with a pacey opening and just never lets you go" – The Letterpress Project</p> <p>"Another beautifully crafted, satisfying read from one of our most accomplished writers for young people" – Books for Keeps</p> <p>"Landman writes with pace, passion and expertise" – <em>The Times</em></p>

A powerful and deeply moving coming-of-age drama from Carnegie Medal-winning author Tanya Landman, inspired by the life of infamous sharpshooter Annie Oakley. After the death of her beloved father, Maggie and her family are thrown into a life of destitution. With little income and no way to live off their poor land, Maggie tries to provide for her family the way her father always had – with his hunting rifle and whatever animals the forest would provide. But when her mother is confronted with her "unladylike" behaviour, Maggie is thrown into a life of unthinkable cruelty and abuse. With no one to care for her and only the hope of escape, all Maggie can do is survive.
