Synopsis

When Saxon finds a girl with no memory on the outskirts of the Nevertyre community, his family take her in and nurse her back to health. He is wary of this stranger but compelled to learn more about her. He soon realises the danger they all face.

When Kerina wakes she must fight to make sense of her situation, but she is haunted by images of her past. She is the key to the future, she just doesn't know it yet.

To find answers, Kerina and Saxon must work together. They set off on a quest of self-discovery. Along the way they meet allies and enemies, and uncover truths too difficult to accept. Both must leave the past behind and find a way toward their future.

Kerina and Saxon. Two different stories. Two separate lives. One connected future.
