Home should be a safe haven. Jemilla’s is anything but that. On an island run by male Singers, any female with the gift to hear the magical songs that keep the peace is put to death. Jemilla must hide the gift that would get her killed. When the Thistly invade the island, they murder most of the island’s population, including the Singers. Jemilla escapes imprisonment, but is pursued by a Thistly captain bent on recapturing her before she can Sing the dead back to life. A silver demon waits in the shadows, whispering secrets Jemilla doesn’t want to hear. Jemilla must fight her way through the forest, but with the enemy after her, she might not get the chance to Sing for her island’s survival.
