Sixteen-year-old Griselda and her father have a secret—fairy sight, 

a trait punishable by death. 

Her world is upended when her father is killed, her mother remarries, and her new stepfather soon dies of illness. 

Griselda must cope with her scheming stepsister, 

the responsibilities of fairy sight inherited from her father, 

and a pair of fairy-blessed slippers, 

as well as a thwarted marriage proposal from the prince.

A young-adult fairy story, Griselda Rella

is a reimaging of the Cinderella story, by Charles Perrault, 

with the heroine and antagonist characters reversed.
