In the city of Brinepoint, sisters Redhair and Daffodil Friend, now young women are on a quest for the one thing their powerful mam won't give them: the truth of their ancestry. Their search leads them to a vault, a cushion, and a precious, ancient book-one filled not with records, but with prophecies, rituals, and the story of a forgotten time. They are pulled into the world of Core Rock, a village carved from pink granite, where quarrymen endure 'the angry time'-a bitter strike against the formidable Grand Old Lord Sea Stone. Here, two young girls, Sarah and Ella One Ear, are guided by their mystical great-grandmother (Great Great Old Granny Pink), and her prophetic book. When a traditional ceremony turns into a tragedy at sea, the community is shattered, and the Lord offers a terrible bargain: their sons for his florins. But the stories in Pink Granite are more than just history. For Redhair and Daffodil, the words on the page hold the key to their own identities. As their mother warned, some secrets are buried in stone for a reason, and what they uncover could change everything. The Grand Old Duke had gashed his shinAnd ripped his ear offMarching up and down that hill.Up UpDown DownTen thousand of them quarrymenIn a dispute over health and safety. Pink Granite is a unique dystopian historical fantasy story that explores ritual, coastal communities, struggle and women's magic. Pink Granite can be read as a prequel or a sequel to Carran Waterfield's Redhair and Daffodil Friend, praised by readers of all ages. Exquisitely drawn illustrations are laced between and within the chapters enhancing the prophetic poetry of Granny Pink's sacred book. Pink Granite is presented as a high quality gift book like its predecessor.
