Twelve-year-old Mallie knows better than to dream. In Coal Top, you live the story you´re given: boys toil in the mines and girls work as servants. Mallie can´t bear the idea of that kind of life, but her family is counting on her wages to survive. It wasn´t always this way. Before the Dust came, the people of Coal Top could weave starlight into cloth. They´d wear these dreaming clothes to sleep and wake up with the courage to seek adventure . . . or the peace to heal a broken heart. But now nothing can penetrate Coal Top´s blanket of sorrow. So when Mallie is chosen for a dangerous competition in which daring (and ideally, orphaned) children train flying horses, she jumps at the chance. Maybe she´ll change her story. Maybe she´ll even find the magic she needs to dream again. But the situation proves even more dangerous when Mallie uncovers a sinister mystery at the heart of Coal Top´s struggles -- a mystery some powerful people will do anything to protect.
