Über dieses E-Book
The award-winning author of The Shape-Changers Wife presents a rich coming-of-age fantasy novel that will keep you bewitched until the very end.
“Teens will connect with Shinn’s vividly drawn fantasy world as well as her provocative questions about truth, justice, and individual destiny.”—Booklist
“The most promising and original writer of fantasy to come along since Robin McKinley.”—Peter S. Beagle, bestselling author of The Last Unicorn
Damiana is the Safe-Keeper in the small village of Tambleham. Neighbors and strangers alike come one by one, in secret, to tell her things they dare not share with anyone else, knowing that Damiana will keep them to herself. One late night, a mysterious visitor from the city arrives with an unusual secret for the Safe-Keeper—a newborn baby. Damiana, who is expecting her own child, agrees to take the foundling. She names him Reed and raises him side by side with her daughter, Fiona. As the years pass and the two children grow into teenagers, they must come to terms with who they are—and who they may be.
