In a world where any act of magic could open a portal to hell, the Order insures that no wizard will live to summon devils, and will kill as many innocent people as they must to prevent that greater horror. After witnessing a horrendous slaughter, the village girl Heloise opposes the Order, and risks bringing their wrath down on herself, her family, and her village.
They were right. Heloise felt younger than her 16 winters. Too many times she would do something foolish and it compounded the village's problems. I really hope the next book she matures and be a better heroine.
Great little book. Looking forward to #2.
