The first lesson Eilean MacAlistair learned in blacksmithing: First, you harden, and then you temper. Otherwise, your metal will break. The same is true with life. A few years back, Eilean didn’t temper herself, and she broke someone. Badly. Hospital badly. Her family had to flee Scotland because of her, but now they’ve returned, and 17-year-old Eilean’s life feels like a forge with the temperature rising around her. Mamó is sick, her family is straining at the seams, and magic is real!

A boy washes up on the beach of a quiet seaside town, soaked, shaken, and wearing nothing but pyjamas. He insists he's from here, but the whole place feels... not quite right.

Questions multiply, and a chain of events set in motion centuries ago tightens its grip on the present.

Petra Ambrosi feels what everyone feels—every joy, every bruise, every lie. In a world that rewards numbness, her gift is a dangerous kind of truth. When a trail of uncanny coincidences pulls her into a hidden war, Petra uncovers a secret older than myth: someone is bending fate to their will. To survive, she must remember who she was, claim what she is, and decide what her power is for—healing or dominion.
