Fourteen-year-old Suli must stop the most powerful witch her country has ever seen.
If she fails, her country will starve, her animal friends may die, and wise women's magic will be lost forever.
Invited to fly to the Arctic with the wild geese, Suli jumps at the chance. But when she interrupts her journey to save a girl from being beaten, the leader of the wild geese advises her to return home; a strange illness is spreading among animals. If the cause is magical, only the wise women can stop it.
Arta, the girl Suli rescued, insists on becoming Suli's apprentice, even though the Prime Minister is rounding up wise women and putting them in camps. Reluctantly, Suli takes Arta with her. On the journey back to Weatherstone, they stumble across the Prime Minister's plans to take over the country. He uses powerful witchcraft that threatens to steal the world's magic.
Animals are dying. Wise women's magic is disappearing, and Suli's teacher, Tala has mysteriously disappeared.
Even with the help of her crow teacher and her animal allies, can Suli stop the Prime Minister and restore the magic to her land when her own magic has been stolen?
