About this listen

Alba is a land of harsh laws led by corrupt men. As an aristocrat, Elise has never felt the true burden of her land’s oppression. However, when a family tragedy awakens a new gift, she learns secrets from her mother’s mysterious past that will change everything.

Guided by the dead, Elise learns forbidden powers that would get her burned as a witch if the wrong people knew. The more her power grows, the farther she strays from the Alban way.

With the Church closing in and even some of her family turning against her, Elise knows she must flee everything she knows or die in flames.

The only question is: Can she escape before the Inquisitors learn just how dangerous she truly is?
