Después de ver a sus hermanas sufrir durante años a manos de un príncipe maltratador, Marra --la tímida hermana menor criada en un convento-- se da cuenta por fin de que nadie vendrá a rescatarlas. Nadie, excepto ella misma. Entonces, una poderosa bruja le ofrece a Marra los medios para matar al príncipe, si primero es capaz de completar tres tareas imposibles. Pero, como es habitual en los cuentos de príncipes, brujas e hijas marginadas, lo imposible es sólo el principio. A la misión de Marra se unen la bruja, una renuente hada madrina, un excaballero caído en desgracia y una gallina poseída por un demonio. Juntos, intentarán liberar a la familia de Marra y a su reino de su tirano gobernante. After watching her sisters suffer for years at the hands of an abusive prince, Marra--the shy younger sister raised in a convent--finally realizes that no one will come to rescue them. Nobody, except herself. Then, a powerful witch offers Marra the means to kill the prince, if she is first able to complete three impossible tasks. But, as is usual in tales of princes, witches, and outcast daughters, the impossible is only the beginning. Marra's mission is joined by the witch, a reluctant fairy godmother, a disgraced former knight, and a demon-possessed chicken. Together, they will try to free Marra's family and her kingdom from her tyrannical ruler.
