    About this ebook

    Gwenllian’s idyllic life takes an unexpected turn when the Red Uniforms destroy her village, forcing every adult to fight to the death. In shock at the demise of her parents, the fifteen-year old girl realizes she must assume responsibility for 16 orphaned children.

    Leading the young refugees on a journey to what she believes is a place of safety, Gwenllian stumbles across a most surprising sanctuary. Joined by an old man, who teaches magical skills, but possesses few himself, an old woman who travels with only a crazy goat for company and an aggravating shape-shifting boy, the children struggle to establish a life for themselves in the hidden refuge.

    The concealed settlement thrives and grows, becoming a target for the wrath of the King. Desperate to protect the hidden sanctuary, Gwenllian struggles under the tutelage of the old man, seeking to learn to control her previously unsuspected magical powers.

    When she discovers a powerful family secret, Gwenllian faces a difficult decision—relinquish her responsibilities or learn to re-shape her own destiny.

    Debra K. Dunlap

    Born in Missouri, Debra K. Dunlap became an Alaskan resident at the age of nine months when her parents traveled north on the Alcan & settled on a wilderness homestead. She holds a B.S. in Physics and a second B.S. in Paralegal Studies, both degrees earned while raising her five beloved children. Currently residing in a small Wyoming town, she spends her days working in the legal field and her nights writing (and playing computer games!). In her first YA novel, she weaves together her education, love of Alaska and experience as a Children’s Librarian to create a hidden world of magic in the far north.
