Seventeen year old Lucien Amos lives a quiet life in the woods with his younger brother. Haunted by a scar he can’t explain and dreams he can’t escape, Lucien keeps his world small and his emotions buried. In a kingdom shaped by old rivalries between ruling clans, strength is everything and vulnerability is a weakness he refuses to show. But when one night of violence tears his life apart, a frightening power awakens inside him. Taken by the realm’s elite soldiers and thrust into a life he never expected, Lucien is forced to confront the feelings he’s spent years running from.
