What we harvest / Ann Fraistat.
The farms of Hollow's End were blessed with miracle crops, especially the shimmering, iridescent wheat of Wren's family farm, but then the black mercury blight came, and the blight destroys everything: crops turned to silver-black sludge, animals sickened and blinded, even people; Wren believes she is responsible, and desperate to save Hollow's End she turns to her ex-boyfriend--but they find that there is a lot they do not know about their town and its miracle crops, and that their ancestors have a lot to answer for.

For fans of Wilder Girls comes a nightmarish debut guaranteed to keep you up through the night, about an idyllic small town poisoned by its past, and one girl who must fight the strange disease that's slowly claiming everyone she loves.
Wren owes everything she has to her hometown, Hollowâs End, a centuries-old, picture-perfect slice of America. Tourists travel miles to marvel at its miracle crops, including the shimmering, iridescent wheat of Wrenâs familyâs farm. At least, they did. Until five months ago.
Â
Thatâs when the Quicksilver blight first surfaced, poisoning the farms of Hollowâs End one by one. It began by consuming the crops, thick silver sludge bleeding from the earth. Next were the animals. Infected livestock and wild creatures staggered off into the woods by dayâonly to return at night, their eyes fogged white, leering from the trees.
Â
Then the blight came for the neighbors.
Â
Wren is among the last locals standing, and the blight has finally come for her, too. Now the only one she can turn to is her ex, Derek, the last person she wants to call. They havenât spoken in months, but Wren and Derek still have one thing in common: Hollowâs End means everything to them. Only, thereâs much they donât know about their hometown and its celebrated miracle crops. And theyâre about to discover that miracles arenât free.
Â
Their ancestors have an awful lot to pay for, and Wren and Derek are the only ones left to settle old debts.
