In the green basin of Willowmere Valley, the deer herd has lived for generations beside springs, reed beds, and wind-bent grasslands shared with many smaller creatures. When a roaming band of hyenas led by Kharok claims the valley and begins controlling water, food, and safe passage, the deer are divided between fleeing, fighting, and surrendering. Young doe Liora, her brother Fen, their mother Sera, their father Aldren, and wise Grandmother Vale discover that brute strength is not the only power in a forest.

In the high country of Alderwake, a vast canyon has divided one living forest into three isolated woods. Seeds no longer travel, warnings arrive too late, and old friendships fade into suspicion. The Windmere flying squirrel family —parents Elian and Sora, their thoughtful daughter Lio, their daring son Pipp, and Grandmother Vale —believes the forests can be joined again. But the canyon is too wide for any single glide, and every woodland fears giving more than it receives.
