A Tangle of Knots

National Book Award nominee!

The magic of Savvy meets the complexity of When You Reach Me in this "blithe magical puzzle." --The Wall Street Journal

Told in multiple viewpoints, A Tangle of Knots is a magnificent puzzle. In a slightly magical world where everyone has a Talent, eleven-year-old Cady is an orphan with a phenomenal Talent for cake baking.Â But little does she know that fate has set her on aÂ journey from the moment she was born. AndÂ her destiny leads her toÂ a mysterious address that houses a lost luggage emporium, anÂ old recipe, a family of children searching for their own Talents,Â and a Talent Thief who willÂ alter her lifeÂ forever. However, these encounters hold the key to Cady's past and how she became an orphan. If she's lucky, fate may reunite her with her long-lostÂ parent.Â

Lisa Graff adds aÂ pinch of magic to aÂ sharply craftedÂ plot to create a novel that will have readers wondering about fate and the way we're all connected.
