Sin Eater by Megan Campisi

Set in a reimagined 16th-century England, this novel follows the journey of a young orphan girl who is condemned to become a "Sin Eater," a shunned woman tasked with consuming ritual foods that symbolize the sins of the deceased, thereby granting them absolution. As she navigates her new life, she becomes embroiled in a dangerous conspiracy within the royal court, uncovering secrets that threaten the very fabric of the kingdom. Through her eyes, the story explores themes of power, redemption, and the resilience of the human spirit in the face of societal oppression.
